travelingmamma: We use Bottled Water for very practical reasons. We began using container water, originally, because we had small children in our home and could not be confident there were no lead pipes in its conveyance. Lead causes serious problems in infants and young children and we did not want to chance those health risks. Also, we prefer to regulate the amount of flouride and other additives the children are getting. Finally, we do NOT buy those little, individual bottles but order several 5-gallon recyclable containers that fit on the water cooler/heater in our kitchen.
