Coca-Cola's brand of bottled water, Dasani, was a flop in the UK after the public realised it was just filtered tap water. But the story's a bit more complicated than it might seem. | Drinking Dasani with Ashens: • 15-year-old UK Dasani ...

During a trip to the US I was like "hmmm what the hell is that purified water they sell in bottles ?" And it was just that. What you can do at home with a water purifier, they do sell to you in a bottle... France, like the UK, never had such a product, and like the UK, has many mineral water brands, exported all over the world (Evian, Vittel, Volvic, Perrier...). There is no way such a product would have worked once people would have known what it was in France, because they would have had the same reaction as me : "why the hell would I pay for that when tap water is so cheap?".

Tom, you did not mention the number one issue with tap water: the last mile. The voyage water takes to your tap varies with the type and age of municipality's system.

One of my coworker's brothers was an executive at Coca Cola.

@lassievision 4 года назад

Which is according to the packaging inspired by 'clouds' (and hopefully not their air pollution). I particularly like the supposed manufacturer of 'Glaceau' which has connotations of pure glacier ice-melt. Being distilled water, it's not a million miles away from the stuff you put in your iron (deionised) but adding some electrolytes, because the mineral shtick didn't work last time. I often see a bottle and wonder if the 'smart' refers to how they're once again pulling the wool over their supposedly smart customers' eyes.

@duncanadelaide4054 4 года назад

Dasani's bottles are blue in the US because CocaCola is trying to get activate the subconscious connection between the color blue, cold temperatures, and bodies of clean water that reflect the blue sky. No other bottled water in the US does this to the extent CocaCola does, although almost all of them use blue or blue-on-white labels on clear bottles. Incidentally, the more fancy mineral waters and sparkling waters in the US often use green glass bottles.
