What's something you don't understand that people in your country do?

For me, the amount of people that buy gigantic still water bottles, tap water in Ireland is fine to drink or boil its not necessary to buy still water for cooking or drinking, the water I'm referring to that they buy, is no better in quality or taste than our tap water.

It seems like a totally ridiculous waste of money to me

still bottled water contains NO CL2
Chlorine gas, Cl2

This is where the term “chlorinated water” comes from – it’s water that’s been sanitized with chlorine.

Chlorine intolerance is often mistaken for chlorine allergy because they are very similar. After all, both can cause a person to suffer with watery, itchy eyes and stuffy nose that comes with a side of coughing. It’s possible a person can suffer from chlorine intolerance and not be allergic to it.

People who have a low intolerance to chlorine can experience these symptoms when swimming in a pool that’s been purified with chlorine. And, due to the lower intolerance levels, they tend to experience those symptoms. Of course, the chlorine intolerance can happen when clothes are washed with a chlorine-loaded detergent. Some people won’t use chlorine bleach on their clothing or other fabrics.

STILL BOTTLED WATER is sanitized with O3 ( Ozone )

It leaves NO residual and is the highest disinfectant known to man, No virus can withstand it

@SW-User yeppers, But the water I'm talking about is really cheap and it's possible it's actually tap water there's a huge difference in taste and quality between these cheap ones and the better brands

@SW-User Many cheap Asian distributors fill and seal bottles with just plain tap water and sell it as STILL or de mineralised water
