Poland Spring: Exposing A Colossal Fraud

Thanks for watching! I will be publishing more videos related to the water industry soon. Subscribe to stay in the loop!

As a college student in 1997, our Environmental Science class poured different bottled waters into Petri dishes during lab to see if any bacteria would grow. The only sample that did was the Poland Spring water. This was at MVCC in Utica, NY. I asked my prof if we needed to avoid it, he said that the bacteria was not harmful.

And how many other brands are pulling the same dishonesty

But it's not even from Poland.

It's easy to purify water so failure to do so is negligent. It's easy to purify tap water so buying cult water brands is also negligent.

The editing, thumbnail, and everything else is incredible. Super solid video. Keep up the good work!

The quality' of your editing and narration is exceptional. Switching between voices for quotes and your own narration helps to keep the listener engaged, and your pacing makes this video very good storytelling. I'm newly subbed and expect you will have great success. I'm looking forward to more. Good luck and thanks for your contributions!

Very surprised by the quality of this video. Very impressed, keep up the work! (You definitely deserve more subs)

In Golden Colorado, the original Coors Beer factory has tours, AND free tasting. So go there, if on vacation. In the OLD days they used to get their water from "Clear Creek" which runs up the valley into the mountains. Before the miners got up there, the water was as pure as the mountain snow, and Coors still has that river & cascade picture flowing on their labels. As the mining went up the river, the water became so contaminated that it was deemed unsafe to drink, for various and obvious reasons. They used mercury shakers to clarify for gold and silver. In recent times, the river has been cleaned up, and it is drinkable most of the time. Coors, in its better than average wisdom, decided decades ago, that they needed a better and cleaner water supply. So when you go on the tour, and ask where they get their water, they will tell you that it comes from deep underground wells, some of which are 2000-feet deep. All the water is tested and purified to meet a cleanliness, non-mineralization, and safety standard. Around here, drinking Coors beer is far safer than drinking the City Water in any large city, east of the Mississippi river. Chicago, Flint, Detroit, Philadelphia, and Pittsburgh are horrible examples. I've been there, not going back.

The unfortunate answer to your question at the end is that, depending on where you live, the tap water bottled from somewhere else may still be less polluted than the tap water in your own home.

Ozarka water is bottled from a real spring in Texas - it comes out in many places where you can fill your own bottles.

As someone who has been drinking bottled water exclusively for 25 years I can tell you, Poland springs taste very good and makes me feel just fine. I have tried a dozen other brands and definitely Poland. Spring springwater is one of the best. So you can take your castigation of Poland springs and shove it where the sun don’t shine. I have no brand loyalty! The moment it doesn’t taste right or make me feel bad it’s gone. Poland Springs is still my go to bottled water.

I avoid the fancy expensive bottled waters and look for the cheapest water. I don't care if it is bottled tap water. In fact, I often rinse out and refill plastic bottles with tap water. I may pay a few cents extra is the bottle comes with a sport cap, that is a cap that I can open and close by pulling and pushing on it. The primary reason I buy bottled water is the convenience of having cold water when and where I want it. My guess is that is the same for most people.

Now do a video about American Tap water compared to other countries

Thank you. Very very interesting And informative

Wow, I was told to avoid Poland Spring water 15 years ago; he told of the dried up well and it being nothing more than purified tap water. He said the same thing about Desanti water, I don't know on that one.

Please do more research videos on other brands

Interesting!

"The Fountain of Youth" does exist...I use to swim in it everyday, It's called Spring Water 7.2 ph [with naturally occurring electrolytes]. Now you know why FIJI and Icelandic is 3 dollars a liter....

"Spring" as in Spring-Summer-Fall-Winter.
