It is amazing to me how things have changed in our society. When I was growing up there wasn't any such thing as bottled drinking water. If you were going to get something to drink the biggest selection was soda. The main call was to get it in a returnable bottle or can. Now the stores are full of a selection of bottled drinking water in countless tastes. There are plenty of reasons why folks started purchasing bottled drinking water.

One or two people don't like the taste of treated town water that comes out of their taps. There have also been many studies that caution folks the drinking water supplies in specific areas might be polluted. Most diet included the 8 tumblers of water in their regiments long before it became well liked by the general public. I believe that folks are going a bit over board with the bottled drinking water. Next time you are out in public notice what number of people are carrying bottled drinking water with them.

It is everywhere. At the work setting most folks carry a bottle of water into meetings with them. They also have a bottle of water on their desks and in their cars. Many people in our office refill their water bottle in the day from the gigantic bottled drinking water that we have in the company break room. For some of the people it would seem the bottle of water is a security blanket.

Walking down a side walk or in the mall the majority of folks are carrying a water bottle. When i'm going for walks round the area I see other walkers toting a water bottle with them.
