    I was at a restaurant in Italy and they kept bringing us bottles of mineral water. I go back to the restroom and see the waiter refilling the bottle from the tap them tried to bill the table for 7 bottles of mineral water. I disputed the check, we shouldn’t have to pay full price for tap water. There was nashing of the teeth until I said that is seen them refilling the bottle.

      You’re right and correct, but it’s a bit insane you didn’t feel the difference. Or was tap water over there like über fantastic 😁?

        If your in the mountains, the tap water is better than most bottled water.

        assuming we’re not talking about sparkling water, which some people call mineral water: Is it really that common outside of america for tap water to not taste fine?
        I’ve never had bottled water where the taste was in any way remarkable, except from some brands that just taste like stale water where the plastic bottle leeched into it…
