A thread about water

I've recently come to the conclusion that Water has a very unique and wonderful taste.

I used to believe water was tasteless. But today upon drinking some regular, tap water (I live in Chicago so it's nice, non mineral lake water), I have been convinced suddenly that it has a very unique flavor.

Some people feel water has a distinct flavor, some argue to the end that it doesn't. What do you think? Why?

 

technically water does have a taste based on whats in it, how its filtered, what its processed/bottled in.

Like dasani is garbage,evian SMACKS and fiji is overhyped

 

I have reverse osmosis water, and it slap and taste so much differently and wayyyyyyyyyy better than any other water I drink.

ngl I like Dasani but it make me more thirsty when I drink it, Evian lit tho

 

If water is distilled, then its flavor is the temperature. Drink was warm water and then drink some ice cold water tellme that shit dont taste different

 

Water is considered a "neutral" taste. It goes with just about everything. Despite this, the source of the water you drink, as well as the temperature can have a wildly different effect on the taste of your water.

For example, imagine you just got done PE in school, and your coach/teacher let's you go get water. As you press the button on the fountain, out spews cold, refreshing water. Wouldn't you say that that water tastes much different than the water in, say, your water bottle you filled that morning?

 

i feel like a big portion of the way water tastes is linked to temp as well.

 

i love water. daily hydration.
@SavannahBanana knows what's up

 

Water is water. Tastes the same at every Temp.

 

I'm sure theirs a lot of factors that effect the taste of water itself.

There's also factors that change your taste in general.
1. The name of the meal. For example: "Succulent Italian Seafood Filet" versus "Seafood Filet."
2. Utensils. What the utensil is made out of
3. Temperature
4. Color
5. Environment. Like your surroundings, outside versus inside.
6. Expectations
7. Memory. If you remembering it tasting good, you will often drink more

 

Who needs water when you can have energy drinks all day.

 

water is water. I can't really describe the taste, but there definitely is one.

 

Ofc water has a taste. And every different source of water has a different flavor. Like each brand of bottled water tastes different, and every house ive had tap water from has tasted different.

 

The tap water at my dad's house tastes different than the water at my mom's.
If you taste little bits of metal, it means your water has failed the vibe check.

 

yeah i like my water with a full body, a little bite, and a nice, smooth finish.

but no, water (in it's purest form, h2o) has no taste. it has a mouth feel and temperature, sure, but our taste buds do not react to water. if you're tasting anything, it's minerals and/or chemicals.

because you are dehydrated so your body wants to replenish that. it would be the same if you were starving and gobble down a hamburger. it'll taste like the best thing you've had in your life. the taste doesn't actually change.

 

Water is wet.

 

Them best waters be right before bed, 7 gulps THATS IT.

Same thing before shower

 

Drink a cold glass of water right after coming out of a hot shower. It changes your life.

 

I'll make you change your mind
