I like tap water more because it tastes better and I have never seen any proof of bottled water being healthier. If you want more proof just watch the penn and teller bullpoop video on this subject.
So which do you prefer, and why?
This is serious? I guess it can be to some extent. I don't drink water regularly. I'm going to get kidney stones in my future, I just KNOW it.
From what I learned in 8th grade Earth Science, Long Island has great aquifers, and with an additional filter for our drinking water, yet I don't know why we still buy bottled water ??? I prefer the taste of bottled water to tap water though.
In America, I go with tap water for the same reasons as you...But in poorer countries, I definitely go for bottle water or even Poweraid or something else like that just to be safe. I had to learn that lesson the hard way. :(
Tap.
Bottled water just tastes...bland.
Distilled water is better.
Bottled, tap just doesn't taste as good. D:
Ewww...Tap water.
I can't drink it. D=
Bottled Water for me.
Why not just Filtered Water?
Ahh, Penn & Teller: Bullpoop!, how I love thee.
I'd totally intercourse Penn.
...Anyways.... Tap water for me. Even though I'm being brave by drinking water from Lake Mead... Bleh.
In different states for some reason the tap taste quite well different.
Yea' you don't get that sentence do you?
Well I know once I went on a vacation to Florida where the tap tasted like garbage nothing like New York's in my trip to California when I was recording my documentary I tasted tap water that wasn't similar to New York's but a bit... like it I could say but it wasn't better.
Here in wisconsin, the tap is pretty dang good!
i can't drink tap water. it makes me liquid laugh.

Bottled.
In Houston(or should I say a town outside Houston)
The water tastes kinda like metal.

Must be all the bullets and guns! :D
I always imagined that somewhere there is a gas station where a fat guy named Bubba fills plastic bottles with water from a hose....
Lets have a test shall we?
Hmmm....
Tastes great.
I'm pretty sure we get water form an underground aquifer around here....

it was in a magazine, if it's on the web and I can find it I'll send it to you.
If the bottled water is purified I'd say tap but if it's natural spring water I'd say bottled.

Probably comes out of Lake Michigan.
Anyways, tap. Comes out of Lake Michigan on my end, and bottled water is incredibly wasteful.
Tap, unless I'm going on a trip, then bottled. It all tastes the same where I'm from. And I really don't worry about petty things like whether I should drink tap or bottled water.
Tap. It saves a plastic bottle from going into the land fill. It takes more water to make and ship the bottle than the water in the bottle. We can't afford to wast water any more.
Tap.
Here is a good debate on whether bottled water is good.

Tap water is pretty good where I live, so I usually drink that.
Bottled Tap water.
Really, after I drink a bottle of water, I'll fill it up from the tap.
i only drink bottled flavored water.
