Does anyone else find the taste of Arrowhead water kind of gross?

Asked by Tink (8673points) July 6th, 2010 from iPhone

I think it has a weird taste, water isn’t supposed to has a flavor right? And yet, this one does. I notice it more when the water is around room temperature and after drinking it my throat feels parched.

I know I don’t have to drink it, but I’m just wondering, am I the only one that notices it?

For me it’s Evian water that has a funny taste. I also dislike Desani water. Maybe Arrowhead’s particular minerals make it taste bad to you.

I agree with you. Arrowhead has an extremely bizarre taste, almost like I’m tasting more of the plastic it comes in, rather than the water. I stopped drinking Arrowhead completely because of it.

Why buy bottled water if you don’t have to? The transportation and packaging both take a large toll on the environment. I read the origin on one bottle and it was from the Miami municipal water supply!

For my money Fiji is the best bottled water.

Think plastic bottle…plastic tastes real funny especially at elevated temps…the plasticizers start to out gas and yummy extra flavors at no extra charge!

I think all bottled water tastes weird.

@Seaofclouds agreed.

I don’t like the taste of bottled water at all. I can’t describe the taste that I get but it’s like leaving a glass of water out overnight, and drinking it the next morning, yuck!

Yes it does taste weird to me too, most bottled water I think tastes fine, but Arrowhead has a bit of a weird taste to it. Like they added to many minerals or something.

I was told by a “water professional” that Arrowhead water is actually recycled sanitation/public water. The minerals everyone tastes is to hide the stale old character of which it came from. Gross.

I just bought a gallon of Arrowhead water and it smells like Tide laundry soap
