    • 2005, E. Mackey, J. Davis, L. Boulos, J. Brown, G. Crozes, Consumer Perceptions of Tap Water, Bottled Water, and Filtration Devices, page 1
      Bottled water can originate from tap water, groundwater, or natural spring water and might be filtered, distilled, deionized, carbonated, or mineralized.
    Bottled water is very expensive: you are usually just paying for a fancy label and lucky if you get some carbonation.
