am i the only one who thinks arrow head drinking water taste like smelly socks? especially when in room temperture.

i never liked arrow head but i hear alot of people prefer arrow head when it comes to drinking water. i have no idea what people see in it. i dont like it at all!

i prefer Aquafina for everyday drinking.... although it taste unatural like they put some kind of extra ingredient in it but it taste so refreshing! both cold and room temperture! but ofcourse FiJI water is the best... smooth, thick and taste so good!

Dasani water taste nasty. too salty and it is in fact they put salt in it as i read the back lable. it even healed my bleeding teeth! since salt is good for stopping bleeds but for regular drinking i dont drink it.

I know I've seen people here explicitly mention that they're drinking "a splash of Arrowhead" with whatever hipster scotch of their choice. I personally think it tastes like water.

Come on doc...really?

I drink Arrowhead water. I don't notice any "dirty socks" whether it's cold or warm. Tastes like water to me.

It's not my favorite of the bottled waters...but when I can get it cheap...I drink it. Even if it tasted like dirty socks, it'd still be better than my tap water.

it's the first i've ever heard of it

hey, op, maybe it's the bacteria from your mouth that's left on the mouth of the bottle that you're smelling. try pouring it in a glass and see what it smells like then.

Pretty much all bottled water tastes the same to me. Whether it's auquafina, arrowhead, deer park, or the generic kroger brand, I can't really tell the difference. Bottle vs. tap, yeah I can tell the difference, but bottle vs bottle, not so much.

All the nestle brand bottle water is simply ground water that is run through a green sand filter and a water softener. If you have RO/DI water at your house, its cleaner than most bottle water you buy from the store.

Coke and Pepsi (aquafina and Dasani) put salt in there in order to maintain the taste of the product longer..

All are dosed with Liquid N2 before capping to sanitize the head space..

I can get going on why everybody that buys bottled water is wasting money, but of course, its these people that keep me employed. So drink up!

I'm starting to think that you don't live in the same world as we do.
Water tastes like dirty socks, pizza sauce is sour, TVs cost 2-3 times as much, Blockbuster is still a viable rental option, the fat guy in King Kong is named "Jack Hammer", drinking water quickly makes you sick, cars brake by themselves, the jokes of your world aren't funny to us Earthers, exercising is done while shitting, Playstation 3's get scars, the elderly try to stab you while getting groceries, people put their face on their computer to masturbate, the internet stops for 99 seconds every 50 minutes, lightbulbs cause cancer, and sluts are the polar opposites of "maidens".

I personally like deionized water. IMO, water should taste like nothing.

I can't bring myself to even purchase Fiji water. I can't justify the environmental impact of shipping water 6000 miles to my home when I can get effectively the same product locally.

Evian and Voss are good, but too expensive. I am not keen on Arrowhead or Aquafina.

The best stuff is my tap water with a filter.

All Bottled water is made out of the same Molecule. Don't let the marketing people fool you.

i think desani and aquafina both taste like tap water. which kinda sucks. it has a metallic non-natural taste to it (because it literally comes from r/o water that has been injected with a shitty balance of minerals)

i tend to opt for spring water, as it tastes the most natural imo. always weary of it though, as spring water many times can mean "water taken from ground with very little filter process".

Don't most of them go through some kind of osmosis process? Every spring water bottle I've seen has some kind of purification it goes through.

I think most bottled water tastes funny/bad, maybe I'm just used to our tap water but I think it's pretty good.
