RE: so I got a new tap water filter

We just use the frig filter. It is a two stage filter with charcoal. Tastes great. We even use it for the dogs.

My wife buys bottled water, but I seldom drink it. The thing about bottled water is that if kept in the frig, the water picks up tastes from whatever is in the frig. We learned this the hard way. After Katrina and being forbidden to return home for weeks, everyone had refrigerators that smelled like dead meat.

Bottled water picked up that taste through the plastic bottle within hours. It doesn't seem like this would happen, but it does. We had to throw out bottled water we cooled in that garbage tinged frig. Only canned drinks Worked. The taste can't get through the metal.

Our refrigerator eventually made its way to the curb after many cleanings and attempts to get the smell out. Almost everyone had to replace their refrigerator. Stores sold out and there were none to be had for a while. People drove far and wide to buy one and haul it home.
