Yes it is. It’s way cheaper at Walmart but I would buy it there either. It’s just water for crying out loud. Probably out of the hose coming out the side of the place it’s bottled.

Yeah they’re pretty proud of that cap. I’d almost bet they didn’t have screw-on, aluminum caps back then for sure.
Not real hard to research it.

Amazon, Walmart, eBay, food services of America, it’s just about everywhere in places that haven’t been around since 1871. Evolution. We can still buy car tires too.did you know that? Probably not the first version ever made but they’re still car tires.

Did Nestle buy it yet? They've bought almost every other water company.

Having been around the world more than once I can assure you we have the cleanest, safest municipal water supplies bar none! If you need to drink bottled water then go for it. What really leaves me wondering is why anyone anywhere needs to drink water from Fiji?

Yup, New York City tap water beat them all in a taste test, they have some beautiful reservoirs upstate they pull from, it’s claimed as one of the reasons NY pizza dough is better.

Bottle Water Versus Tap Water Taste
Surely, surely, you can’t tell me that tap water tastes better than bottled water? Can you? I can.
In a blind water taste test by Good Morning America, New York City tap water came out the clear favorite among testers:
New York City Tap: received 45% of the vote
Poland Spring: received 24% of the vote
O-2, Oxygenated Water: received 19% of the vote
Evian: received 12% of the vote
And this test was no fluke. Time after time, tap water is rated as good or better tasting than bottled water blind taste tests.

That is true. We Have Zepherhills spring water here, good stuff, been around for decades and Nestle bought them out a few years ago

Our water comes from a year round spring. The only filter we use is to filter out the tiny rocks. It tests cleaner, more pure and safer than most tap water from a community source and it's free.👍 I bought a case of bottled water (Evian) and it tasted like plastic bleach. The dog won't touch it. I was afraid to pour it on the plants we have so I just poured it all out on the road to kill the dust a little. Threw the bottles in the free trash dumpsters we have here in Idaho. There's no recycling centers within 200 miles of us so that's out. I wonder where that recycled crap comes from anyway. If a container claims it's made from 100% recycled materials I won't touch it. Number one that's a lie and number two what kind of recycled materials?🤮
