Aquafina is the only Reverse Osmosis water that I can find on the supermarket shelves. This gets rid of the vast majority of Chlorine and New World Order flouride. Rand & Ron should switch, and include in their talking points how big government has messed up our drinking water. This would help get more environmentalists to wake up to the Revolution.

Lots of people buy the bottled water at restaurants instead of having the tap. At least, at the higher end places. Common brands are Evian, Badoit, Pellegrino, Voss.

Some restaurants to be more "green" are filtering and even carbonating their own water in house, eliminating the packaging and transportation of bottled water. Chez Panisse in Berkeley is doing it.

Who the hell drinks bottled water at a restaurant?I've been known to do it at lower end places.

Since 2006 I drink nothing BUT water (with the exception of alcohol every once in a while). And I like 2 specific brands of bottled water not to be pretentious, but because of consistency of taste. One's taste is much more sensitive when water is all you drink. For the 2 weeks following my last Coke-a-Cola I noticed things started tasting less bland and more vibrant.

Do you only drink pure grain alcohol to preserve your bodily fluids from communist subversion?

Ozarka and primo brand bottled waters are reverse osmosis.

Don't know these two brands. Are they widely distributed? Large grocery chains? Or, perhaps, some kind of specialty sore?

You can probably find Primo at your Kroger's.

They can sell 3-5 gallons, and if the store carries those, then you can recycle the containers there, and you get a receipt for half off the next gallon size.

And they have the big pack of bottled water too. :)

I heard from Rand cousin's mother's brother, he saw Rand drinking Diet Dr. Pepper. :eek:

How ironic. The aspartame was rammed through the FDA by Donald Rumsfeld.

You can find Primo brand water all over the country. There are refillable stations inside of major grocery chains, as well as individual water bottles that , once empty break down immediately. Also, Ozarka (owned by Nestle) is a nationally recognized brand of water from the Ozarks. It comes in gallons, 2 1/2 gallon taps, and bottles.

Judging by the bottom of the bottle, my guess is that he DOES drink Primo. :)

Dunno about that.

The Primo cap is clear, the one he is holding is white.

That knocks out Dasani, Ozarka and Poland Springs right off the top of my head.

It doesn't seem like opaque white, though...and that is why it is hard to figure out... Primo caps do look white if they are not shot professionally..like when you look at them in person.

Anyway, I feel like a dumbass for even trying to figure out what kind of water someone drinks. LOL.

From what my GREEN liberal friends tell me, Bottled water is the new evil.

Just like diapers became evil a while ago, now bottled water is considered evil.

There is a green tint on the bottom side of the paper he is holding...and the sun is making the cap white.

It is a bottle of Poland Spring. I have one right next to me.
