It's amazing what a huge industry drinking water has become. The latest is a product called Mio, which I've been seeing advertised on YouTube. It adds color and other stuff to your bottle of water. It's about time!

I wonder what chemicals are in this stuff. I will stick with plain water with a lemon or lime added.

It has been around for a long time. The lemonade flavor is my favorite.

Not that I'm a "health nut" but we probably consume all kinds chemicals that we don't know about. I love reading some of the labels on processed foods. You need a PhD in organic chemistry to understand them.

Been drinking lemon with my water for years. Started drinking an entire squeezed lemon in a warm glass of water each morning over 2 years ago after 3 straight years of kidney stones 😵‍💫…been clear ever since…it works.

As George Carlin said: "What's the big deal with flavored water? I've been drinking flavored water for years! You put some ice in a glass, pour in some scotch, and as the ice melts - you have flavored water!" RIP George - you were the greatest!

My absolute favorite is approx. a 25% cranberry/75% distilled water mix, sometimes with green tea, sometimes not. Beside loving the taste of cranberries, (drinking it for over two decades) I never have any sort of urinary issues, never stones, natural, no chemicals induced, no fat, the natural sugar content is very, very low and I don't sweeten it. We use distilled water due to not liking the taste of our tap water....don't have to worry about chemicals......

I also love it (my cran/tea/water mix) mixed again 50/50% with a favorite beer. That way, I can sip a tasty adult beverage w/o the negative baggage....now, at this age I only have a maximum of 3 beers/mixed in an evening. I know that may sound wimpy to the younger folks and harder drinkers, but it satisfies my desire for an alcohol "taste" with little harm to my body. I know there is great debate about how much alcohol is too much (some say any, some say a little, some say more), but this works for me!!

From a business standpoint, what a winner for the water sellers, they suck it out of the aquifer (actually it runs out of the aquifer) here in Florida by the millions of gallons basically for free, Floridians get a few low end jobs, the company and shareholders make a fortune, no one discusses their gigantic waste output, and life goes on.
