Is Bottled water = Tap water + Purchase Co$t? |
Pepsico recently agreed to change labeling of its Aquafina-branded bottled water. The labels until now read "Bottled At The Source P.W.S." and includes an image of snow-capped mountains and states "pure water". As per critics, such a label may have implied that the source of water was from spring even though Aquafina bottled water uses tap water. In response to pressure from various agencies, Pepsico has agreed to spell out P.W.S. as Public Water Source on its labels.
I have read too many articles about bottled water and am not sure whether they are really better and more pure than the tap water, or its just a gimmick on the part of their manufacturers. The drinking water standards in our place seems to be good, so in our house, we basically use the Brita-filter to filter the tap water. So that's what we will stick to regardless of what labels Pepsico or other bottlers use.
