It's usually a difference of the plumbing being up to code, not a difference of the water source. For a European example, on my last trip to Malta, restaurants in town would not serve me tap water when asked. The water supply for the island is potable, but much of the plumbing is old and not clean. So they served Nestlé water instead. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
