Coca-Cola has admitted it is selling purified tap water in a bottle!
 

Soft drink giant Coca-Cola has admitted it is selling purified tap water in a bottle.
It says the source for its new Dasani bottled water is the mains supply at its factory in Kent.
The company says Dasani is "as pure as bottled water gets" due to a "highly sophisticated purification process".
But the UK water industry is worried that the marketing of the product implies tap water is impure, which experts say is not the case.

crooks everywhere! not just the adult industry

Oh my god...that's not bad for you is it? I love Dasani. McDonalds sells it.

What's the problem? as long as it passes the purification process.

Lol thats strange is it true??

Uh...

It says that on the front of the bottle.

Just Imagine the profits from selling tap water !

When has coke ever denied that it was just filtered tap water?

wh even filter it? is the water so bad over there?

thats actually a good idea...I'm in the water business

Yeah tons of profits :thumbsup Just tons of marketing and hype about dirty tap water :1orglaugh Fear does wonders for selling

Never. All they do is purify it and then add some minerals to it. Costs about 6 cents to make and distribute one bottle.

thats some nice profit margin there.

i heard several years ago that Coca Cola thought the biggest threat from their business came from mineral water, so now they started selling tap water lol

I was watching a program a couple years ago about bottled water. From what they said, all this spring water etc. does not have to pass the high testing levels of municipal water. They tested a whole bunch of bottled water samples and in the end, the municipal water was actually more pure than the bottled water. I don't know if things have changed since then, but I rarely drink bottled water anymore after seeing the program.

wouldnt you sell tap water for $0,90 a bottle if you could?? :1orglaugh

Yeah its OK for the fucken french to give us thie Naive water! I mean Evian:1orglaugh

What the fuck did you people think Dasani was?

Not that I know of....nor have they claimed it to be from a natural spring..

Dasani tastes like crap anyways

pepsi rocks!

I knew it, nice way to make some coin.

Evian is the only way to go.

You do realize most of the amercian bottled waters are tap water don't you? If you take a close look a lot of them even say they come from a municipal water supply. There's not much of a difference from your tap water, unless your tap water tastes like shit locally and mine does.

:throwup water...

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

corp mofos

This I agree with.

Its the only thing I drink.

Our tap water sucks
