New disgusting trend: raw unfiltered water.

[UFC=Pride]

The world is full of gullible idiots

That’s not necessarily true. They still have to test their water yearly for bacteria and contaminants, and groundwater (even if safe to drink) can have excessive minerals like calcium, iron or copper that would require filtration to avoid damage to plumbing, poor tasting water or other effects.

Frankly, I would expect as much.

I knew a family once who got all of their water from a well and it was just . . . from a well!

They just pulled that shit straight out of the ground and that was that.

But I did think that was kind of odd and I would expect others do things differently.

From the article




These idiots are buying bottled unfiltered water from trendy stores in Silicon Valley. Shit is disgusting. I think I'll start selling the delicious waters of the new river in Calexico California.

Yum. Just look at that yummy foamy unfiltered water. It already has detergents from all those plants in Mexico, so maybe it's clean already.

Just read an article about this...
"Live water goes bad after awhile"
Dude called it "real water"

Don't censor me right now, because I'm not talking about homosexuals when I say this... that is the most , f@ggot, f@gotty shit I've read in awhile (at least since the last pro-Cyborg thread)!

I genuinely kinda hope they get violent diarrhea, and I never even knew what would make a person wish that particular ailment on anyone until now. This fucker who sell it, amd was acting like it was some supreme organic shit, probably doesn't even drink it himself.

What is with this push to go backwards? Unfiltered water, anti-immunization, flat earth, etc. We have so much, yet there's this growing group of folks who just want to act stupid.

Soon people will be raving about the transcendant experience of sacrificing children to Baal. Or creating your own wheel

Holy shit this place is filled with city people. No one here ever heard of well water? Most people around here have well water and we’ve spent our entire lives drinking water straight out of the ground. You people would curl up into the fetal position if you had to leave your safe space and see what normal life is like outside the city.

So well water is different than what this guy is selling. If you have a limestone or shale stone well most of it is filtered through those rocks along with testing you should be fine. You need to test your well for drinking because if you are not there could be high amounts of arsenic or lead. I wouldn't trust it.

I wasn't able to find where he's getting it from? If the water is coming from a normal spring, it's still no different from well water. If he's getting it from a pool in a local creek, he's going to kill someone. Is there no testing done on water sold retail?
My water has been tested, I was assuming that any water sold had to be tested too. Maybe I'm wrong. But again, it would depend on where it comes from.
Lots of people around here get water from developed springs where it just runs out of a hill.

He is claiming it comes from a spring. I don't know maybe he is just marketing it and is using clean water. What pisses me off is people not understanding that water, filtered or not has no magically properties. The way this guy markets it is stupid and idiots are buying it.

I'm on well water but it still comes through my taps after a UV light filtration system and occasional water quality testing.

 

[Jumpy]

Pretty sure people who have wells on their property don't filter their water. It's just water from the ground.

We had well water, growing up. The pump usually has a filter on it(as was said, can contain more minerals than usual and can still have bacteria introduced). People don't actually dig wells and pull water up with buckets on pulley systems any more, breh.

First thing I thought of when opening the thread...

If you're lucky this is all you will get.

Grown up with well water my whole life, and I'm still alive to tell the tale. I would rather drink it than some of the treated water in Midwest Texas. That's some 3rd world shit. I do use bottled water for the coffee maker though, because it doesn't last long with the high iron content of the well water. I do use a mineral filtration system and water softening salts for taste and comfort. Get the water tested every few years for e-coli.

Bruh. The wells in west Texas like Permian and Odessa are questionable. All that drilling and fracking. Who knows what the fuck is in all that well water.

 

[Swoliosis]

Stupid idea. Now free range water, thats where the money is.

Don’t forget cruelty free

The odds of an oil/gas well messing with the water table are astronomical. It's just one more scare tactic the anti-drill nutcases have tried to convince the public is real. And in the extremely rare instance a water table has been compromised, it's immediately obvious. It's not something that stays hidden without testing.

 

[Wrath of Foamy]

I’ve played enough 7 Days to Die to know that this is a bad idea...

 

[Po]

Who ever came up with, and successfully marketed charging $24 a gallon for ground/pond/barrel water is certifiable genious. The Yoda of con artists. Lol

I imagine he's a colossal douche too but yeah

 

[Satur9]

All microbes safely removed to a farm well upstate.

 

[Hitmandn]

Silicon Valley has done it again you guys. These guys are just ahead of the curve.

 

[Bald1]

Probably. But if you're willing to pay 24 bucks per gallon for "special water" then I'm not going to criticize the person selling it to you. (not "you" specifically) A person looking for snake oil is bound to find a snake oil salesman sooner or later.
