But...it does. Depending upon the particular minerals and whatnot, some water simply tastes better to me. For example, I'd rather drink my refrigerated tap water than Dasani any day. Aquafina also sucks, IMO. I think they filter out the natural stuff and add a certain percentage back to avoid that "flat" taste that distilled water has. Only, they get the formula wrong, according to my taste buds. Granted, if I'm thirsty and those are my choices, well, I manage because I'm a friggin adult.  Edit: Well water. It's a crap shoot, but some of the best tasting water I've ever had came right out of the pump in a farmyard.
