Over the years I've learned to filter the water I freeze to keep steak cool for the first few days. I filter it because the chlorine smell is horrendous if I don't. Plus it's a way to test the filter.

My kid says that the water from Q tastes great! I suspect it's the lack of chlorine. In any case, I've always had to adulterate it with with something to make it palatable to me.

There is no better tasting water in the world than the stuff that came out of a garden hose where I grew up. We even had a dedicated faucet in the kitchen that bypassed the softener. That was good too.  [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
