Wanted: W words

I'm not judging you on needing to buy it 'cause you forgot to bring it from home. We buy flats of Sams Club water all the time. (RO treated.) DH won't drink anything else. I have attempted to explain to him that, considering our own extensive, expensive filtration system (because our well water is full of staining, pipe-destroying tannin-bound iron), buying flats of water in plastic bottles does not confer any significant advantage... Yeah, he doesn't care. It's safer from a bottle as far as he's concerned. And that includes being safer than a five gallon bottle on a dispenser. I'm not gonna win this one.

Oh wow I’m not that bad at least I do prefer Poland Springs water to anything else but I make myself drink from the fridge when I’m home. I can’t bring myself to do the regular sink tap

Throw it in the trash!

That might be a little challenging

Where I grew up, they used to tell you that the rotten egg water was good for you just to get people to drink the water.

We must share the same well.

My grandparents water at their old place always smelled so bad and my grandpa would always say it was fine they had a well. Every time you showered you ended up smelling weird lol no one drank the water.

That would be funny if there weren't people that actually do such things.

Yes, but it does make the best milkshakes

Everything going well here and looks to continue that way, still watching to make sure, but no longer concerned. Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers, y'all

Those people hopefully get sent to the deepest parts of hell where giant cats do that to them over and over and over.

Yep and they are all dead now.

The mortality rate has never dipped below 100%. (Barring Elijah & possibly Enoch & Moses—some say John, the beloved disciple.) But that's not statistically significant, so...

This is all very fascinating and enlightening!! I had no clue about the honey!! how is that even legal!? I noticed now on some stuff they say “cheese like product” or “frozen dairy dessert” Or whatever instead of saying ice cream or cheese if it isn’t really cream or cheese maybe similar. I didn’t think of bringing water cause this wasn’t really a planned trip and I thought I’d be back

In order to qualify as real cheese or ice cream, there are minimums of other "stuff" like "hydrogenated vegetable oils" and such they can contain. If they exceed those limits, they are bumped down to "cheese food product" or "frozen dairy dessert." Even most Kraft cheese slices are actually "cheese food." That doesn't make them bad ... just not 100% cheese. I really didn't pay much attention to it until my sister married a dairy farmer. Now I read 'em all. I still use the "faker" products, but only when it doesn't make sense to use the high dollar real stuff ... and I DON'T tell my BIL!
