Water: Tap Or Bottle?
OK, the green gloves are off. “Shame on you if you drink bottled water!” shouts a post on Epicurious’ Recipe Swap forum. The discussion on the thread isn’t so much a debate as a community monologue, in fact, with a slew of others jumping in with their agreement.
Objections to buying bottled water mentioned include the waste of resources used in manufacturing the plastic bottles and then not recycling them all, and also paying for what’s often tap water anyway. Another issue: whether chemicals from the plastic bottles leach into the water.
I feel an Epi-log informal poll coming on…
Do you buy bottled water regularly?
Do you use a refillable water container?
