Pretty much anything from a can tastes weird to me, not sure if it's all mental or if there's something going on there. I imagine the former...
I don't hate on people for buying packaged water anymore, since I ran my tap water through a distiller and saw (well, smelled) the result. Good god almighty
Paper biodegrades though, people get too hung up on recycling where wood products are concerned. Cardboard in your trash will not doom the earth.
Paper >>> Aluminum >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> (turn page) >>>>>>>>> plastic
We have pretty damn good water here. I drink tap almost exclusively. I know the state uses many sources depending on locale, tho.
Selling bottled/canned/whatever water is the greatest grift of them all.

I'm not surprised with Newark. My keywords were 'depending on locale'. It's a crap-shoot, we have notoriously different sources of water treatment plants, wells, lakes, reservoirs, desalination, etc etc. So it's never easy to figure out exactly where the water is coming from and where it went thru. I'm in Hudson Co. We did get letters and emails from Suez a few months back (I think nearly everyone did, actually) stating the lead issues. There is a website, I'll see if I can find it, that lets you know - down to your very address - if there is lead in the route of pipes. We were luckily okay. Strangely enough, the website to check for lead in the pipes towards your address were completely missing from the emails and snail-mail lol Will edit shortly when I find the site.
We're just going to have to agree to disagree here.
That's great that some in New Jersey can drink from the tap and not be poisoned. But I'm not sure how my comment about shitty tap water mentioning Jersey, when one of the largest, if not the largest, population centers of the state has poison in its water would spark you to make a comment about how pure it is.I'm not surprised with Newark.

I literally never said it was pure, all I'm attempting to do is educate. Sources and links have been edited in for, mainly, Northern NJ.That's great that some in New Jersey can drink from the tap and not be poisoned.

I understand that what you're saying is in your area of New Jersey the water is ok. I was just taken aback by you trying to contradict my inclusion of Jersey on the list of places with shit water when you yourself say "it's a crap shoot."I literally never said it was pure, all I'm attempting to do is educate.

When I said we have pretty good water here, that's all I meant, here in my locale. Sorry for the confusion.
get one of those undersink filter systemsMy sink water looks and tastes like cum water, it's insane. Not even a Brita filter makes it taste okay. I ended up buying a water dispenser, and I just refill my massive jug as needed. Although they've been getting rid of a lot of the spots I'd refill them at...
Are boxes really much better than plastic? It's probably a bit easier to recycle, but paper products still have a bunch of issues in this regard. As for aluminum, my impression has always been that it's far easier to recycle than either paper or plastic and you can generally recover the majority of the material
It's probably just air bubbles that make it look cloudy.My sink water looks and tastes like cum water, it's insane. Not even a Brita filter makes it taste okay.

You may not be able to reuse the can, but why couldn't you reuse the twist capped one? Plus you can still recycle cans.
