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

Bold of you too assume that there’s anything remotely organic in Coke that can actually ripen

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 agree with you, I dislike Dasani. However, it will never be as bad as the abomination that is Air Canada’s bottled water. It tastes like loose change, chalk, and flour.

My sister and I have been referring to Dasani as “Das Ass, Honey” for years now.
