This just doesn't make any sense. There's nothing in it. Please explain.

The FDA requires all food stuff, including bottled water to have a label explaining what, if any, nutritional value it provides. Otherwise, some idiots would probably think they were getting their 2000 calories from calorie free sources, such as bottled water. Also, some water has natural nutrients in it, such as sodium, which can be important to certain people who are affected by sodium intake. Plus, with all the new flavored and vitamin infused waters, the nutrition label actually does say some things have more than a "0" content.

Anything that's manufactured for human consumption is required by the FDA to list all ingredients or additives, even if they add up to zero. Some bottled water contains trace amounts of flavorings, minerals, etc.

If it's flavored water some people might mistake it for having sugar in it. Other then that I think it's just federal regulations that if people consume it you have to have a nutrition label on it. Stupid huh.

I think its a law for everything to have nutrition facts. Plus some people don't know that everything is 0. =)

It's the law.
Everything that is made for consumption has to have a nutrition label.

It's telling you that it's not PURE water. Something has been added to it.
