Tap Water for Sale!

What are the benefits of drinking tap water?

Let’s see, its eco-friendly.  And it really isn’t all that bad for you; like we were all  once told.  But can you imagine paying to drink tap water?

Especially paying to drink water from the taps of New York City?

Well, that’s exactly what Tap’dNY water is.

A publicity street team dressed in orange jumpsuits, called Truth in Hydration, took to Central Park to promote the cleanliness of local NYC water. The plan is to hit up a variety of New York locations, promoting the benefits of drinking locally.

The Trendhunter article I found this in quoted the NYC water promo website in saying: We don’t travel the world from Fiji to France seeking water or offer the ususal bottled water gimmicks. We work with NYC’s public water system to source the world’s best tasting tap water, purify it through reverse osmosis and bottle it locally, leaving out ludicrous transportation miles. We offer an honest and local alternative to thirsty New Yorkers, giving them a smarter choice: to drink their own (award winning) water. (truthinhydration)

What do you think of drinking tap water?  Would you be sold on this promotion?
