This is a question I ask myself all the time: Should I buy bottled water?
I ask myself this especially when my kids ask if we can buy some EVERY TIME we go to the grocery store.
They do have good points to present when they try persuade me
*it's easier mom
*it's nice for my lunches
*we can take them in the car
*they have lids
*no dishes
But do these reasons outweigh my reasons for saying no?
*it costs money
*tap water tastes fine
*it's a lot of trash
*you can survive in the car without water for a quick run to the store
*I bought you refillable water bottles for school at the beginning of the year!
What Experts Say
Experts have tested most bottled water and according to their results bottled water is just tap water. It is tap water distilled or purified but tap water all the same. Some bottles that don't fit in the bottled tap water category have chemicals in them- some that can be harmful-due to differences in regulations for city water vs bottled water.
To help us solve this weekly debate we at MomFit did a taste test.
We compared five popular bottle brands and added in filtered tap water to determine which taste is worth the money.
