Dasani Tap Water

So, it turns out Coke’s Dasani pure water is just filtered London tap water.

Dasani takes tap water and removes any impurities, such as bacteria, viruses, salts, minerals, sugars, proteins and toxin particles, and then adds calcium, magnesium and sodium bicarbonate for taste.

But tap water suppliers maintain that what comes out of the water mains is perfectly fine to drink — and good value compared with Dasani.

The Food Standards Agency (FSA) has contacted the local authority covering Coca-Cola’s headquarters in west London, asking it to look into whether the label “pure, still water” on Dasani bottles breaches labeling guidelines.

Interesting, huh ?
Teaches us not to believe everything advertised on products.

  1. Hey you think that’s bad.

    We’ve a bottled water here in Ireland called Ballygowan and it’s sourced from the river in its home town of Newcastlewest in Co. Limerick. Said so on national TV . Tastes c*** but then the river is quite polluted
