I buy water because I refuse to drink fluoridated water. Also, the tap water in Houston is toxic. (I use high-quality laboratory TDS meter)

So, to me, clean water is a necessity.

Is that because you think it's bad for you when added by the Govt, or bad for you even in natural form? Reason I ask is because our little desert off-grid cabin has high-er amounts of flouride in the well water. Supposed to be ok in small amounts, except for staining kids teeth......?

Water from the hose is the best!

Well, depends on the hose! Some of them taste pretty bad.

I grew up in a hot climate before AC was common. Nothing better than running around on the lawn barefoot with a hose, chasing your siblings, and drenching yourself - and them - inside and out.

Added by the Govt.
I have no problem with it in natural form.
