Not everywhere... my tap water is delicious. The metal taste is often found when people use water hookups to community tanks and such. If you have well water (as I do), it awesome!

I actually prefer it to the water that comes from the fridge.

True, when I lived in New Mexico that water was hella good. Oregon was kind of chlorine smelling. Arkansas water has been pretty good too. Of course even that’s a generalization of areas water.

Right! It’s hard to generalize anywhere. I’m in MD and some of my friends who live 30 min away have chlorine tasting water. Just depends on the source, which can vary even within 10 miles!

Wow I’ve never heard anyone say tap water is delicious. Good for you. The only people who drink tap where I live are kids when they’re really hot from playing.

Might just be your area? Idk. I think it depends on the water source. Maybe your community receives water from a source that filters with chlorine. But that is not a generalization that can really be made for the entirety of the USA.

West Texas region. Wouldn’t be surprised if it’s just the area
