yes treated water will still have tiny trace ellements of LOTS of unpleasant things.. Many large cities using water from rivers are inevitably using water that came from treated sewage discharged upstream. It is sometimes said that water in London has been drunk five times before it arrived at the tap, but this is an exaggeration. There are many large towns on the River Thames upstream of London (Oxford, Reading, Swindon, Bracknell) that discharge their treated sewage into the river, which is used to supply London with water downstream. This phenomenon is also observed in the United States, where the Mississippi River serves as both the destination of sewage treatment plant effluent and the source of potable water. Research conducted in the 1960s by the London Metropolitan Water Board demonstrated that the maximum extent of recycling water is about 11 times before the taste of water induces nausea in sensitive individuals. This is caused by the build up of inorganic ions such as Cl-, SO42-, K+ and Na+, which are not removed by conventional sewage treatment.

Hate to say this, but water is used on the Jack Daniels plant too. JD is about 60% water.
Bottled water will also have traces of animal cack in, after it has gone through the soil, washed away from surrounding area. Don't forget the insect poo and the poo on insects legs. The insects will fly into a bottled water factory!
The amount of treatment that bottled and tap water has to go through, will kill off any harmful bacteria.
Funny question though!

Well, drinking too much Jack Daniels can make you poo, but as far as water goes no matter what it has in it, they do the best they can to get the impurities out. Unfortunately, they don't always get everything out.

in london, the average glass of tap water has been through someone 7 times!
they filter it and clean it though so its nothing 2 worry about ..if u r worried though, get a water filter or move to a country where all the water comes straigt from borewells. (first idea is cheaper, second more interesting)

Your friend is right.
there are traces of poo everywhere you look.
Did you know that there is more poo in your kitchen sink than in your toilet?
All meat that you buy has been cut from a carcass that was covered with poo when the intestines of the animal were removed ( they explode, spraying poo all over the meat).
When you prepare the meat for cooking, you get traces of poo all over the place. That is the reason we are told to cook our meat well.

Get a water test which tests for fecal matter. Some tests
can be bought for as little as $20 at well known
department stores.

As water is filtered from a Sewage Plant then the answer has to be yes.

Are you serious? I'm sorry to be the one to break this to you but everything has traces of "poo" in it or on it. Peanut butter, pasta, bread, eggs, milk, salad greens, ground beef, meat of any kind, and I could go on and on and on (even your Jack too). There's "poo" on your front door knob and probably on the key board your typing on too! Sorry, but it's every where.
