Unlike the Juicero, bottled water provides added value in that I can have access to suitable drinking water when I otherwise would be forced to drink tap water.

Before someone replies that tap water is perfectly suitable for drinking: Sure it's safe, but I have never had municipal water that didn't taste bad. Never. Maybe I'm just spoiled because I have a well that provides tasteless water.



Melbourne Australia's water supply is of sufficient quality that they sell, successfully, bottled tap water.


St. Louis tap water tastes about the same as bottled water.

We can substitute bottled water with premium bottled water and the argument holds though.
