I always have to have it boiled. I don't know, I'm just a little iffy about drinking straight tap water, especially after that whole dirty water fiasco here.

Never. Not that it tastes any different. My mom has trained me to filter and boil my water before I drink it.

Yeah, I do, I like the taste better than when it's been through a filter. Although, I have started using the filter sinc eI've been back for summer, simply because I like the water at school better.

When my best friend and I were younger, we used to fill our tea cups with tap water and pretend it was tea. We drank it like nothing. Until one day, my mother told us to stop because it was bad for us. mellow.gif Ironically enough, tap water today is probably cleaner than the water we drink.

tap water is like last resort. if there is no soda, no milk, bottled water, or juicy juice, and i'm really about to just die 4rm lack of liquids...then i'll drink tap water. but otha then that? no. i mean i was brought up on it, but it's something about that taste that just freaks me out. ermm.gif

I live in Vancouver. And our tap water tastes good, no weird taste at all. It's just a paranoid thing.

Here's my scale in terms of water (1 is poor, 10 is good)

Canadian bottled water - 10
Canadian boiled, filtered water I drink at home - 10
Canadian tap water - 9
Hong Kong tap water - 6
Hong Kong bottled water - 9
Hong Kong boiled and filtered water - 7
Cuban tap water - 1, don't drink it, or prepare to take a lot of pills
Cuban bottled water - 4
Cuban carbonated bottled water - 6. It's only 2 points better because the carbonated-ness masks the taste a bit.

Moral: if you're going to Cuba, drink their canned pop.
