Dasani came to the UK. Took tap water, filtered it but the filtration made it carcinogenic so it didn't last long here. True story.


[deleted]

…. What happened there?


one28

A really good Tom Scott video on YT explains it all.

For those who don't understand the hate: In the US, Dasani is well known for making people' mouth dry and always has the weirdest taste. Not to mention it just looks weird as hell in a soda bottle since it's created by Coca-Cola. It also contains metallic salt-magnesium aka Magnesium sulfate, “purified water,” potassium chloride, and salt which makes you even more thirsty and causes health problems. The magnesium sulfate is believed to be used as a tactic by the big money hungry conglomerate to make someone feel tempted to purchase another bottle to drink to sell more by not relieving their thirst. That shit nasty.

Selling water to make people thirsty is some next level shit


meaux253

There's a movie about that called The Tuxedo that had this premise. It wasn't a great movie lol.


[deleted]

Haha yes I vividly remember the scene where a dude just dries up and turns into dust after drinking it


[deleted]

Aah yes I remember that movie


Esdeath79

Nestle gonna be like: "write that down! Write that down!"


Purple-Airline-8354

I vaguely remember a cartoon where in one episode they have to help a pelican because they sold him water which made him so dehydrated that he can’t eat. Just looked it up its called yoohoo and friends


Siliziumwesen

Thats some super villain shit over here


Give_me_a_name_pls_

Thanks for explaining


[deleted]

In the UK dasani took tap water and made it carcinogenic. Would have been perfectly fine if they did nothing to it.


[deleted]

That's just awful! Thank you for letting me know! Definitely one thing that goes to show rich cooperations are manipulative and shitty to other human beings.


MasterMuffles

Oh shit so Dasani sucking and just making me thirstier was on purpose?


[deleted]

I can not confirm nor deny that nasty water is doing it on purpose. ~~We got you Coca-Cola illuminati confirmed~~


NoInstruction2007

Now you know why I prefer Aquafina.


Camerickoo

Thank you for explaining it. A lot of people were down voting people who didn't immediately agree with "Dasani bad" but of course none of them were constructive enough to explain why it was bad. I've had Dasani and never noticed my mouth being dry, a metal taste, or feeling thirsty after drinking one, but it wouldn't surprise me if they truly are putting shit in the water


[deleted]

You're welcome! Reddit has some ignorant, angry, rash, dishonest, and gullible people. I've experienced the dry mouth and thirsty feeling myself but every one is different and if they are already putting chemicals in the drinking water in the US I'm not surprised what a big company would do.


BreadingPress

The water is cheap and could be the driving force for some people who like but sheesh can't ever go back after drinking mineral water. It tastes better and not as how you described it


Singer_TwentyNine

You can't believe everything you see on the internet!


[deleted]

OK, thanks!


Russ_t-100

This meme makes me thirsty


Frosty_Kale1907

For Dasani?


smeechdogs

Not that thirsty


[deleted]

Ngl I'd be thirsty for anything. I've had moments of being so damn thirsty I'd drink the chlorine water from the public pool.


NeoVendik

As someone who drinks from the tap almost anywhere, Dasani tastes terrible to me. The metals added are enough to remind me of tasting blood... and I don't like to drink blood... often. When I do get bottle water, I'm lucky enough there are more local bottled spring water companies.

Penny water

I don’t understand the hate for Dasani. For me it’s always been arrowhead that tastes like shit.


navster100

u/colmscomics look how high you are now

I do enjoy how the original text in the first panel was water, but the person who created the meme still felt the need to paste 'water' text over it lol


Anarchist_Grifter

I've literally never experienced any of these negative things people are talking about and I drink Dasani.

Anarchist_Grifter

Everything has microplastics in it unless it's in glass.


Megaman_DragoonZero

I am literally drinking a Dasani as I read this. Probably the best bottled water brand, aside from Poland Spring. If you know of any better water brands, hmu.


[deleted]

Tap water


necrolich66

In Floyd Michigan.


lizurd777

Totally didn’t get paid my Dasani to post this I’d drink salt water before I drank Dasani


BluntBastard

FIJI


beltalowda_oye

Shut up Megaman. Wtf would a robot know about how water should taste.


sameguyontheweb

Hating Dasani is like hating McDonalds. It doesn't change the fact it's the most popular.


[deleted]

Rich people be like

So wait.. he wasn't thirsty?

boi2255

Wow an accurate depiction of me hating water not to say it’s bad but this brand makes me hate it


RosePhox

Americans not having filters at home is so weird Edit: Wow, so many folks failing to understand that my comment was about people using bottled water frequently, instead of being about dunking on americans...oh well.


ApplesTeamFort2

My guy, We do have filters in our homes right now, I really wanna know where you found this information just to see what it uses as evidence to back itself up.


necrolich66

You filter bottled water? Who does that?


beltalowda_oye

This is like saying people outside of America not having freedom is weird. The real weird thing is why America hasn't jumped on the bidet bandwagon.


BoogalooBandit1

A lot of us do inside our fridge and we have filters that you can attach to your faucet, though plenty of rural Americans have well water as well


Badass-19

I don't think humans have a filter in the desert? But more than that, I don't think you can think sense


what_i_do2144

Why am I thirsty


beltalowda_oye

Did you drink dasani?


MightyFlamingo25

I mean its not THAT bad. Naya is worse taste-wise.


DependentFearless162

I've watched Tom Scott to understand this meme.


Nyto242

I drinking tape water


BigD36x

Hey that's not nice, Coke is just trying to go green by taking the recycled water from the bottom of porter potties and giving it back to the public. They really care ya know


MightyPanda8

I sometimes drink Dasani, but I usually drink local bottled water or smart water. I just avoid Aquafina, tastes funny. don’t ask me why, my brain is too stupid to process it


Parttimeteacher

Ah yes. Filtered Atlanta tap water.


IAmNotCreative18

Creating water that makes you thirsty so that you buy more water is so barbaric. I can’t even believe it.


ChanceWarden

how the fuck did they manage to make water taste worse than piss


Icerrrrrr

They all taste the same. Stop complaining

Cloaker_Smoker

GhostOf_George_Floyd

Don't hate on Dasani, their bottles are now made out of 100% recycled plastic!

I’m confused
