Bottled water is probably more expensive than coke so I don't think that'll work.
It is unhealthy. My county's tap water in general is pretty terrible, and at one point I believe there was a study done that proved the tap water increased aggression if drank daily. If my tap had a proper filter on it I would gladly drink it, but unfortunately a good filter is a tad expensive and something my mother does not wish to do.
Where are you from?
I have no problem with water anywhere even after living in Walkerton. And having the public utility cause 7 deaths by fraud and lieing about water quality makes people a tad paranoid.
The only exception being places that are chlorinated to the point where turning on a tap stinks up the entire house, but while common in 2000 most places aren't that badand just a cheap Brita filter clears up any issues (or if is just chlorine you just need to keep a pitcher of water in the fridge, it mostly clears itself up).
As for that study, a source would be appreciated.
I only drink coffee, water, tea, and beer. Cutting soda out of my diet would only remove the random root beer I grab once a month or so.
If I could get back to a healthy weight, I would give soda up.
It doesn't come from Walkerton.The Dundalk-Flesherton region is terrible however, even though I'm pretty sure it comes from Walkerton, which seems strange.
Your tap water is not going to increase aggression. If it does, then it's the placebo effect. If you are noticing increased aggression in others, then it's confirmation bias. It's all psychological - if I tell you that scientists have shown that people who drink/eat X become more confident over time, then chance are you will become more confident if you drink/eat X, regardless of what X is. Try it on your wife/brother/sister/friend/etc...
Your water may not taste nice, but it certainly isn't going to be harmful. You live in Ontario, not Pakistan...
It doesn't come from Walkerton.
AIt doesn't even make sense since, at the very least, you would end up piping water directly through Hanover or Durham.
In that area, are you even on public water supply? Based on a quick google Flesherton residents don't pay water fees, so they are probably on private wells.
It appears you stopped reading after the very first part of the sentence where I brought it up. Please go back and read my posts.
I read all of your posts. I also went back and read them again, just in case. How many times would you like me to say I've read them?
Same here.
I think you have that backwards.
I tried looking for a source, and couldn't find one. It is quite possible it's just rumours that I have heard or something that people just say, however I wouldn't completely write it off because the people where I live do actually seem very aggressive compared to people in other areas. Could just be the people though.
That was the post I was responding to!I think he's talking about this post.
