Is WalMart's brand of spring water 100% spring water?

Asked by john65pennington (29258points) May 13th, 2012

I just read an article that stated that most spring water, sold in grocery stores, is not 100% spring water, but contains a percentage of tapwater. Is this true? If so, how are the percetages figured and isn’t this false advertising?

In Tennessee, bottled spring water that crosses the state line, has to be 100% spring water.

Question: so, is WalMart’s brand of spring water 100% spring water or is it dilluted with tap water?

There are more regulations for tap water than there is for bottled water.
