“This tastes better than the tap water I’ve been drinking all day,” said Patrick, holding up a glass of the tap water he’d be drinking all day. “It must be JUST water.”
“This one is metallic,” said Darby. “It’s definitely tap water.” It wasn’t.
“Oh, this is harsh,” said Eve. “Tap water.” Nope. JUST water.
“This one is so smooth it’s almost thick,” said Brian, pointing to a warm glass of Seattle city water. “JUST water.”
In the end, six out of eight subjects misidentified the samples. Remarkably, they also preferred the tap water to the fancy stuff in the box.
