Bottled water is everywhere and seems more popular lately than soda. Most brands (such as Poland Spring) claim it comes from a natural underground Spring. Is it really from a Spring or just some filtered tap water? Will the Springs ever run dry?

Okay then. Yes, bottled water that comes from a spring and says so on the bottle actually comes from a spring. Now, they(the company bottling the stuff that is) has to take it, transport it, and then bottle and ship to food warehouses nationwide. Still though, the stuff you're drinking IS from a spring somewhere in the U.S.A. or from another source worldwide. As to the spring(s) running dry, well that I haven't ever found out about it happening yet. I suppose though that if world wide trends for consumption continue, they very well may one day either dry up or be destroyed from some other event or action or lack there of.

It can be exagerated, but when i went to the Alps I tried natural water from the mountain. Whil you walk up a down there are shops so I saw the water but this time in a bottle and it tasted just as natural as the water on the mountasin did. So yes it could be spring water. (I still love soda)

Some wording leads me to believe it's not from a spring. For example Aquafina says "purified water." So basically I could bottle water run through a Brita filter and say the same thing.
If it comes from a spring I'm sure they'd be eager to mention it but for whatever reason Aquafina uses the vague term "purified."

Yes- if the label says it is from a spring then legally it must have come from a spring.
As far as the spring running dry, that's a great question!! It's hard to imagine, but I'm sure it's happened before!

the real problem is that there's no real way of knowing exactly where that water originates from. There r no federal guidelines governing the sale of bottled water. Ur guess is as good as mine. We need to get our policians off trying to figure out whether they should allow gays 2 marry or not, & get thier minds focused on some real issues like this water question!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
