Meet the grifters…
Just fucking piss off.
The final fate of all water, no matter how much the bottle cost.
Just like those charlatans peddling water with baking soda-err… I mean alkaline water.
Given that we know what the mineral content of these different waters are, wouldn’t it be a trivial matter to replicate that by starting with a very pure water source, and simply adding the right minerals?
Laughably so.

The point is it’s a bullshit thing.

I think you read context that wasn’t there. All I mentioned was level level of ease, and I got a reference that I didn’t understand and then a odd tangent as way of an explanation.
Yes but us water experts are able to detect quantum fluctuations from the ground state of the particles in the water to optimize the ionization of the water and improve the interaction with your taste buds
We are being persecuted for our beliefs in homeopathy. They won’t even let me pay my taxes with water from a jar of $100 bills.
Maybe it’s like diamonds. Even if it’s exactly the same it has no value unless it’s extracted from conflicted zones.
Depends if you’re counting Russia, looks like. DR Congo is the only other one on the list that’s sus that way, although Zimbabwe is especially problematic even at peace.
Pfft. Once you actually start doing science the magic goes away. Do you just hate art? /s
As someone who actually appreciate water, definitely NO. We have high quality tap water here, and although there are differences in taste, it’s not worth paying extra for at a restaurant.
But if they attribute magic healing qualities, claiming it’s from ancient magic/holy sites, I bet people would travel to get it, because that’s how stupid some people are.
Penn and Teller did it…
In a restaurant, with a garden hose!
No, no I would not.
Ideally, water shouldn’t taste like anything. If you’re deliberately seeking a taste, it’s now another drink.
LOL, so it should taste like distilled water? :)
Ex wife wouldn’t drink water, loathed it. Found out why when I visited her parents and drank the well water. She found water without all the minerals to be revolting.
Interesting. I’ve had hard water, I’ve had soft water. It has tastes, but none I really feel like I need. And I’ve experienced really strongly flavoured drinking water, which I don’t recommend.
But, then again, I’m not a water sommelier, haha.
I mean… Wine tasting is a scam too.
lol fuck off. yea I get it extremely rich people can be very stupid but don’t bring water into your stupid grift. It is not a luxury, it is a basic human right.
Is it a 6 or 7 L bottle? If not then hell no
How fucking pretentious. Adults playacting. Reminds me of Nero during the fall of Rome. In capitalism nothing counts unless it sells and people with too much money buy all sorts of weird shit, so this may produce another “revenue stream”.
As someone who only drinks water in restaurants and at home for several reasons: there are wild differences between different waters.
That pic has serious Salt Bae vibes. But if douchebags can convince people to buy $12,000 bottles of fermented grape juice, which was once free in Europe, then water can’t be far behind.
This seems like a step towards the water wars
