Bottled water/Filter water/Tap water- What do you use?

Hi Krithika,
Count me in.We use Brita water filters.Since its just two of us i change it once in 2-3months.

You are right about the smell being nullified after cooking, but the fear of the sediments ( white & red) in our cooked dishes...makes me quite apprehensive...

Since you are using tap water for cooking...i dont want to confuse/scare you!

Anway...thanks for sharing your info subhasr!

Cheers

Hey ammukutty,

Great ! Sure it is much cheaper than buying canned/bottled water!

Hi Krithi,

We generally buy water in gulf be it for cooking or drinking. They come in different cans. There is a general saying that if you are buying bottled mineral water, it is already safe to drink and there is no reason to boil it.

Hi Sharadha,

That is great ! No probs for you then....

But generally bottled water is considered more expensive than filtered water....since you are buying in big cans.. then absolutely it is wonderful.

I use PUR filter water for drinking and cooking purposes.
Somehow v apprehensive about using direct tap water even when i was in india.We even have Brita but i hardly use it.
I have a v sensitive tummy ,so i carry water even when we visit friends and for any other place it has to be bottle water.

Dear Krithika
Here i use bottle water for drinking as tap water is very bad. but for cooking i use the tap water, but will boil the water and keep and only then i am able to use it for cooking.

Hi Suji,

Thanks for writing in. It is impossible to drink direct tap water in India. People in Chennai have now started using Aqua guard for drinking & cooking. Ofcourse people do buy the huge cans too.

Better still, some people are even harvesting rain water ( it is filtered externally) and let into their well to sustain their ground water table. Throughout the year, the level of water is about 6 to 7 feet only.

I can surely understand about your sensitive tummy...and it is good that you are carrrying water wherever you go.

Cheers
