The tap water is drinkable. You may just choose not to.

Yep. We used to go to the local beer distributor and buy Coke in glass bottles that came in wooden crates. They were return bottles and you'd get a credit when you brought them back and got another case.

Hi Steve, I live in Dubai, UAE and the tap water is not drinkable unfortunately. They desalinate the sea water.

That's a different story, of course. Is the water actually unsafe to drink, like they tell people not to, or is it just not tasty? If it is unsafe to drink, that means you also can't cook with it or bathe with it either so I'm curious how that works. What's the point of having tap water if you can't use it for anything other than washing your car?

I don't buy bottled water except sparingly if I'm going on a trip or something and need a quick bottle of water. At home I use a brita filter and store filtered water in my fridge for use. At work I drink tap water because it doesn't taste bad at all. I do hate the overly chlorinated taste of a lot of tap water though.

Chlorine evaporates out of water. Just fill a pitcher or bottle of tap water and leave it in the fridge uncovered. By the next day, the chlorine taste should be gone and you have nice cold water to enjoy for free.

I have never heard that the water is unsafe to drink but it just doesnt taste well. We use it for washing the dishes, bath, and anything except for drinking.
