I took no tests.  I drink tap water at home and buy fruited flavored bottled water.  You get the taste of Kool-Aid without having to add sugar or any other additives to it.  I love the taste.  I have also drank Propel bottled water; it is flavored as well. :D ;D

Bottled water is way, way better in my opinion.

We use bottled water. Our water is no good to drink because we are not in City.

I prefer tap water to bottled water. Main reason is that I live in NYC and we have great tap water here. Very clean and tastes great.

I prefer bottled water over tap water.I can't stomach tap water. Everytime I try to drink it I feel sick. Until recently my husband  could drink tap water, but since his acid reflux has gotten worse he can't drink it either. My son can drink either one though.

I can taste the difference between tap and bottled water.  I can also tell when it is fresh from a clean water source.  In Southern California, there is a place called Forest Falls.  The waterfalls and river are sourced by ice melt.  That water tastes WONDERFUL.  Whenever I have gone, I take a couple empty gallon jugs and fill them.  It is clean, crisp, non-floridated, non-chemical water.

Well i have no choice but to drink tap now that i live in town, but will make weak tea to flavor it.  The plastic bottles have bad stuff. When i lived in the souther part of the state and we had well water and had to have it tested every 4 years because of the farms around up. Always came out 99.8% pure. Really miss it too because the well water here is gippy. Not real pure. So when i am out in the country i take my own to drink. Better then nothing.

      Tap water...I do not know where it has been? I prefer bottled water because it has been treated.

My preference is based on the quality of the water.  Some water is just not worth drinking directly from the tap.  Thankfully, my tap water is great so I don't have the need for bottled water.  I also live on a tight budget so I don't have extra money to spend buying bottled water.

For me I can tell when it is tap water. My new fridge has the water through the door and it is filtered. But there are still times I will run even that through my Brita filter. And as for bottled water Some of them are just as bad as tap. So I am very picky on which bottled waters I will drink.

I drink tap water, but I do use a filter on the tap from which I draw from. I find that it removes the odd taste that used to show at times, mostly from a spike in the chlorine levels.
