Holding up a bottle of Dasani, Rep. Bart Stupak, D-Mich., scoured the label for information on the source of the water. It doesn’t say anything about sources or anything, does it?” he asked the panel of government and beverage industry experts. “So we don’t know where this water really came from — Nevada, Connecticut, New York or Pennsylvania?” he asked.
The panel agreed. With more Americans turning to bottled pure water believing it safer and healthier than tap water, there are growing concerns over how water is marketed, sourced and tested for safety and purity. Consumption of bottled water in the U.S. has doubled over the past 10 years, according to the Beverage Marketing Corporation.
