How tf can you dislike the taste of water when it does not even taste??

[–] Stoned_Ape@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I think water tastes awesome. Different waters can have a really different taste.

@Stoned_Ape @SrEstegosaurio

Actually if you tried distilled water, it tastes awful.
So taste of "waters" (which indeed can be excellent) is the taste of what in them is not water.

Correct. It's mostly the dissolved minerals that give water its flavour. For tap water, the disinfection chemicals (namely chlorine) also contribute to the taste, with some people saying they associate it with being refreshing while other people claiming it to have an off taste (either way the tiny amount of chlorine is perfectly safe in case anyone is worried).

Why is there chlorine in your tap water? Definitely wouldnt drink that.

It's a standard disinfection chemical that prevents bacteria from growing in the pipes? Pretty much all tap water have it. Bacteria in the drinking water is way worse than a miniscule amount of chlorine, just ask 18th century London.

Debunking the misinfo around water fluoridation: https://invidious.kavin.rocks/watch?v=bRnBHml8nto

Yes water is fluoridated. No it's not harming you.

Isn't cactus juice super poisonous though?

[–] pingveno@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

At least it'll quench ya. Nothing's quenchier. It's the quenchiest.

On second thought, I'd be entirely okay if all her rich celebrity friends got themselves poisoned as fuck.
