Wow, gees mister, that's a lot of useless steps you have taken there. It's almost like you forgot to let them sanitize their hands before touching the water bottles so you won't get ANY unnecessary germs in there.
My opinion, it's a shitload of wasted cash when you could just sell it cheaper within states just from tap water, you need to learn capitalism mate.
An estimated 60 to 70 percent of the bottled water sold in the United States is sold in " intrastate commerce" (i.e., it is bottled and sold in the same state). FDA says its bottled water regulations apply only to water "that is in, or is intended to be shipped in, interstate commerce." Thus, according to FDA's interpretation, 60-70 percent of the bottled water sold in the U.S. -- all bottled water sold in intrastate commerce -- apparently is not covered by the FDA rules.
@mikecoker FDA's jurisdiction over bottled water products extends to products sold within a single state that are enclosed in packaging materials that have moved in interstate commerce. Known as the component theory of FDA jurisdiction, if any component of a food product moves in interstate commerce, FDA has jurisdiction over the finished product, regardless of whether the finished product itself moves in interstate commerce.
@mikecoker In the case of bottled water, if the plastic used in the bottles, the plastic used in the caps, the paper and ink used on the labels, any outer packaging materials, and even the water itself comes from out of state, then FDA has jurisdiction over that product. In today’s commercial society, that is almost always be the case. Congress has recognized this fact by enacting a law that expressly presumes all food and beverage products are sold in interstate commerce (21 U.S.C. § 379 (a)).
I drink your wal mart great value. I don't trust wal mart at all, everything in wal mart is BAD, is the water that YOU purify filled with shit from organisms flouridated flouridians nazi poison?
With a sense of taste, you can clearly tell tap water from bottled water. I wouldn't drink tap water if my life depend on it....I stay away from using ice from restaurants in my soft drinks as well....cooking at home...I boiled my water first...it's an habit that has rewarded me through excellent health. After all, you're what you drink!
*WAKE UP PEOPLE* In the US tap water falls under the EPAs mandate whereas bottled water, being classified as a food, falls under the authority of the Food & Drug Administration which has weak regulations. Drinking bottled water means that the company supplying that water has less regulation and the ability to cut corners. *WAKE UP PEOPLE* Visit my channel
@thebestalkalinewater NEWS FLASH direct from the FDA website - "Section 410 requires that bottled water be subject to requirements no less protective of the public health than those applicable to water from public water systems using the techniques required by EPA's NPDWRs" (This means that bottled must be at least equally regulated). Plus think about it -- this video is shows the many steps involved in turning "EPA-regulated" tap water into refreshing bottled water.
What's funny is that people who have discolored, smelly tap water -- that reeks of chlorine -- have to feel put-upon because they drink clear, refreshing bottled water instead. I'm a good recycler. And I drink a lot of water. Some of the posters here are just trying to boss me around.
Love having this knowledge. Reassuring especially since there are members of my family with compromised immune systems where their doctors have recommended bottled water use only.
Bottled water has its place. I live in Portland OR and I never buy bottled water there, because we have awesome water, but I am taking care of my sick dad in Jacksonville FLA right now and the water here is gross. I buy 2.5 gal containers for $2 and am happy to do so. That said this video is kind of stupid.
It is obvious the people making this video don't know that reverse osmosis (RO) does not take out chlorine as stated in the video. RO reduces total dissolved solids (TDS) such as lead, copper, nitrates, arsenic, etc. That is why they add minerals back in towards the end of the bottling process. I do not understand why they had minerals back in but they claim it is for taste.
Pretty good video but trend is away from bottled water and more towards filtered solutions such as Brita and PUR.
Delivering bottled water in trucks is insanely inefficient, wastes resources, and contaminates the environment with unnecessary plastic and air pollution. Water should be piped and treated as near to the point of consumption as possible. It's WATER, people. It magically flows through pipes!
Usually it's not a great production idea to record audio in a very loud working plant. Ruins otherwise good audio/information. This is why we use the voice-over technique in video production. Even for only YouTube campaigns/product, crisp clean audio is a must. Imagine putting your audio in a bottle and marketing it for consumption/profit. Only the best, eh?!
They're using so much damn water from that hose for the bottled water that there are none left to water the parched, dead bushes in the landscaping behind her!
I only drink filtered or bottled water, it is the only way to go! Tap water is not as safe as it;s cracked up to be, I only drink it if it has been heated up like when I make tea or coffee.
The cost of bottled water from Coca-Cola is laughable. Please, bottlers, post a cent by cent breakdown of what it costs to produce a bottle of water. And then tell us you are not making the public accustomed to paying exhorbitant prices for a resource which should be free in the US. I pay $.25 a gallon (twenty-five cents) from a business which does reverse osmosis & filtering & it's delicious.
why the hell are they doing all these processes to the water, if it comes out of a tap arent the tap water suppliers legally obliged to make sure it is fit for human consumption? people who buy bottled water are morons who should try living in a country like india or africa where if you actually have access to water it can kill you, people in these situations would dearly love to have access to our tapwater. the bottled water industry caters to people with too much money and no common sense.
I'm not AS concerned about where the water actually comes from as I am about the waste that we're creating drinking all those bottles. I feel a twinge of guilt every time I drink a bottle because even though I recycle, I picture someone somewhere tossing their bottle into the ocean. I still think there's a good chance that the off-brands could be just tap water, but I buy bottled water for the convenience.
@lilyofthefoxvalley do you feel the same why when you drink a soft drink? drink milk? drink gatorade? do your laundry? buy groceries with items packaged in plastic for safety and freshness? play a sport that has protective gear made out of plastic? wear eyeglasses? (a LOT of frames are made from plastic now) chew gum from one of those cup-holder sized plastic containers? or type on your PC's keyboard? all those containers or items are also made from plastic. if so, kudos. Recycling is key.
@h8dook Well yeah of course you're absolutely right.. My point was only that I'm not sure I care TOO much about the source of the water, since I only drink them when its a matter of convenience. I'm just trying to not drink those bottles like I used to, since its not a daily necessity. And thank goodness I don't need glasses...yet! :-)
@lilyofthefoxvalley LOL....in the end, just a good thing that you drink water--from any source ( i could stand to drink more myself!) here's hoping it's a LONG time before you need those glasses! ps: there's a recycling video by this same organization that might make you feel a little better about using the plastic bottles. ;-) -- think it is called recycling empty plastic bottles.
@fionite I have one, yeah. There are times though when you're out and about though when you want water and you can get it at a concession stand/pop machine. Not often, which is why I feel that little twinge of guilt when I do use a plastic bottle of water.
Bottled water doesn't taste much different than tap water, yet costs more on the factor of thousands. I can understand the occasional convenience of being out and being thirsty, or something, but why would anyone not just.. buy a empty bottle and refill it for (basically) free at their own house?
