The Hammer2021 Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 They don't seem to trust their public water supply. In Lisbon the water used to taste so strongly of chlorine we couldn't cook with it or use it for tea or coffee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post bbko Posted January 31, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 31, 2022 If the water tastes bad, time to find a new source or spend a couple of extra baht and get quality over quantity. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klonko Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 There are significant quality differences among the various water bottle brands. There are some brands I could not drink and had to dispose of. We installed a 1 + 3 step filtering system at home and I have not found better bottled water yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gottfrid Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Really!? Probably depends on what water you chose. However, Why do you have a green toothbrush, while I have a blue? 5 minutes ago, Pravda said: The worst tasting bottled water is Chang. The second worst is Purra.

robblok Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Im amazed that so many drink water ????. I thought id read posts about why drink water when there is beer. My water comes from a home purification that is placed on the tap (bangkok area) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My pref is Singha bottled water, the 711 water is also ok. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hioctane Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 I actually drank tap water before (when I ran out and was hungover and too lazy to go to 7/11). It actually tasted perfectly fine. I even tested it with a <deleted> water meter and it was within acceptable drinking levels. Next time, I will test a water filter. Keep in mind I was in a new condo in the middle of Pattaya and not some rural village. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First I thought he probably read that on the internet. Second thought was, hope it's not his own granny he's talking about; Third thought if it is, then hope his grand pappy told him that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2 is 1 Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 (edited) Why do Thai's drink water that tastes like plastic? Water has been in planet millions of years but when they put it in bottle its ruined! Reason they add expiration date on it.

Don Chance Posted February 1, 2022 Author Share Posted February 1, 2022 The white plastic is not food grade. Even in Nepal they have PET refillable bottles. I have even found worms swimming in the plastic jugs on the table that was filled with the big white 20l jugs. If you smell the white plastic jug you will smell plastic. It is no brained not use these. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crossy Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Back on topic - I've only had a plasticky (is that a word) taste when a bottle has been left in the sun (usually in the car), it gets put in the screenwash. We have an RO filter from the city supply which we use for drinking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
