All municipal water is foul, some will disagree but IMO that's down to
what you've become accustomed too.

I my case I'm talking about rain and mountain stream water.
Water has an aftertaste and nobody can tell me otherwise

You made note of the price of bottled water. If only people knew
what's to come in the future. All the investment activity with the
world's water supplies, including aquifers, hasn't been because they
plan to give it away. Water has been the new oil for at least a decade
now. Younger generations will pay a small fortune for water.
