You obviously DON't get it. Maybe I should carry a cooler around with me. You have no clue. What is wrong with a different package for the water?
Again, let's revisit the last post I made about the grocery store. Why is water the issue? What about ALL THOSE PLASTIC BOTTLES OF SODA on the isle?

Iv never heard of anyone who has to drink distilled/purified water? what kind of % of people are you talking about that has this condition? its gotta be something like 1% not something iv heard of before lol

So you're going to drink 4 - 6 quarts of water before you get home? I highly doubt that.

But since you seem to be a pretty heavy drinker, here's a 10 gallon cooler from Igloo. Knock yourself out.

Look up the percentage of people who are immune suppressed...it's quite a large number. Starters are Transplant Patients, the elderly, people with cancer, people with lupus, I can go on and on...look it up before you say that there is only 1% of the population that have immune issues that should be cautious with their water intake. I'm not being ridiculous. I'm serious here!

Water is the issue because you created this thread about water in plastic bottles. .

And...you Obviously didn't read what I asked you, or you decided not to answer.

Yes, plastic bottles are convenient. OP is discussing the possibility of dispensing water in a can; beside the bottled ones. This method is not popular. Why soda is canned but not water.
There are some people who would appreciate canned water.
Also: Aluminum cans do not contain bisophenol A (BPA), found in plastic bottles. This chemical has come under scrutiny due to a possible link to health risks that might include cancer. Most plastic bottle manufacturers insist that plastic bottles are safe, but consumer advocate groups support legislation that would ensure the removal of BPA from plastic products.
Both plastic bottles and aluminum cans can be recycled. However, only 10 percent of bottles are recycled when compared to 50 percent of cans. Cans also are more efficient to recycle than bottles. Once the aluminum has been produced, it can be recycled over and over again.

(Actually, I am typing as fast as possible)lol

No, I am trying to draw on the PLASTIC issue. After all, the debate is that everyone says STOP PACKAGING WATER IN THE PLASTIC BOTTLES. I'm saying stop packing EVERYTHING in the plastic bottles, BUT PLEASE DO put the water in SOMETHING to buy!

Sorry if you misunderstood.

No gorillas allowed. They poop and fart - and that's bad for the environment.
