    it’s the chlorination. makes it smell foul and impossible to swallow, at least for me. last time i had to buy one of one of those bottles with a built-in filter, because otherwise i would just instinctually not drink water.

      Then say the water tastes bad. Don’t spread misinformation that the US doesn’t have drinkable tap water.

        i wasn’t the one making the claim, but for me it is undrinkable. when i say “impossible to swallow”, i mean literally. i have an allergic reaction to chlorine, and there’s enough in us tap water to make my throat swell shut.
