Purified water

Today one of Marks clients gave him a bottle of Dasani purified water as he was leaving. So he brought it home and gave it to me. Waking up thirsty I grabbed it and have just finished enjoying it. Dont tell Coke..but it tastes just like water to me.

Then I got to reading the label. "purifed water, enhanced with minerals for a pure, fresh taste".
Ok.. so like if something has been purified wouldnt that mean taking it back to its "pure" state? The ingredients are... purified water, magnesium sulfate. and on that note.. sulfate just doesnt sound good, potassium chloride and salt. Heres my thinking. Water... H2O.. its pure, they took it back to its pure state. then added sulfate(ewww) potassium cloride(bleach???) and salt. Now the purpose of water is to aid in your liver and kidneys ability to flush out the toxins from your blood. Salt wasnt added as a mineral, according to the labe it was added for taste.. hello????????????????? water shouldnt taste!!!

Potassium chloride was once used as a fire extinguishing agent, used in portable and wheeled fire extinguishers. Known as Super-K dry chemical, it was more effective than sodium bicarbonate-based dry chemicals and was compatible with protein foam. This agent fell out of favor with the introduction of potassium bicarbonate (Purple-K) dry chemical in the late 1960s, which was much less corrosive and more effective. It is rated for B and C fires.

HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLO????? and im drinking this????

Magnesium Sulfate
Magnesium sulfate is used in bath salts, particularly in flotation therapy where high concentrations raise the bath water's specific gravity, effectively making the body more buoyant. Traditionally, it is also used to prepare foot baths, intended to soothe sore feet. The reason for the inclusion of the salt is partially cosmetic: the increase in ionic strength prevents some of the temporary skin wrinkling ("pruning" – partial maceration) which is caused by prolonged immersion of extremities in pure water. However, magnesium sulfate can also be absorbed into the skin, reducing inflammation. It is also sometimes found in bottled mineral water, and accordingly is sometimes listed in the contents thereof.

So, all that considered... just give me tap please and thank you... you can keep your 2 dollar waters.
