Question

homework help: Do you drink bottled water or tap water? Do you think that one tastes better? Do you think you could tell the difference in a blind taste test? For this discussion board, I'd like you to do a simple experiment at home or at school.

Do a taste test with a subject of your choosing (it could be you!), testing bottled water vs. tap (or water fountain vs. tap, etc). You can conduct the experiment any way you choose...if you can't find two different water sources, you could even TELL your subjects that they are testing bottled vs. tap, but give them two cups of the same water!

Post a simple explanation and the results on this discussion board (150-word minimum). Your posting MUST contain an experiment.

Explanation / Answer

I drink bottled water and I do think that bottled water tastes better because it has added minerals.

I think I can tell the difference between tap water and bottled water because tap water has high TDS and because of that it has weird taste than bottled water.

I will do the experiment on my self only. The blind experiment will be done by my mother and I will tell her to give me same looking glass of different water samples. That taste will be blind and I will sip it one after one and tell my mother which one is which and confirm with her if I am correct or not.
