why does bottled water taste different to tap water?
In: Chemistry
Because bottled water is designed to taste good. Pure water, which you can purchase (distilled water) doesn’t taste very good. We like to have water with some minerals in it. Not coincidentally, the most pure tasting water is water that matches the mineral content of our own saliva.
Most bottled water companies purify their water and then add minerals until it has the “proper” amount for their brand.
