Dasani is made by Coke. It tastes the leftover water that doesn’t ripen into the dark brown coca cola.
It’s Atlanta municipal branch water.
I saw a stand up in Atlanta claim it’s just flat Sprite
What’s funny is back in the day bottling was very local. Coke didn’t even own the bottlers and still doesn’t. Back then, if they had bottled water it would’ve straight up been from either your local or somewhere nearby’s municipal water supply. In the 70s the bottlers consolidated regionally into things like Coca Cola United and Coca Cola Consolidated. Be nice to go back to that, with glass bottles going directly back to your local bottling company for reuse and no wasteful shipping of stuff you can frankly get locally.
Edit: In the 1920s there were over 5,000 bottling companies in the US. A bottling company for every 20,000 people. Thats how local it was.
Some places kinda still have that. I grew up a few kilometers away from the well where our lokal brand is bottled from.
Water? Why would I want Water? My entire house is filled with water and it tastes a damn lot better than Dasani, Killed Far less people than they have to.
My wife and I disagree on this, but Dasani water tastes like pennies to me.
Same here. Both me and my daughter can’t drink it. It’s terrible. My wife thinks we are insane.
I don’t hate Dasani, but it is definitely a different flavor than most bottled water. They add some minerals specifically to flavor it, which is a weird choice. But I guess if you’re CocaCola and your entire business is adding shit to water, you aren’t gonna just sell boring water.
If you look at the ingredients label, it’s salt. They add salt to the water.
Like am I crazy or is that literally doing the opposite of hydrating you
Ehh, depends on the concentration of salt and if you’ve been sweating a whole lot… and I mean working outside in the heat sweating, not a 30-minute cardio. But unless you have low (or lose) sodium and/or chloride, than it will probably dehydrate you
I went to Publix day before the hurricane and the shelves were empty. There was a stand alone display of Dasani and nobody was grabbing it. I ended up grabbing a case of Zephyhills at a gas station.
