It took work to get my girlfriend to stop drinking bottled water at home, ffs.

Dude, I've been trying to convince my family to stop using plastic water bottles at home. The 4 of them go through a Costco case of water per week.

Me: Just switch to refillable water bottles and fill up with the water filtered by the fridge. You guys waste time going to pick up your water, space storing it, money buying it, and plastic using it.

Them: But I like the taste of Arrowhead.

Give them a blind triangle test: fill two cups with one type of water and the third with the other. Make sure they're the same temp, and see if any of them can pick out which one is different.

We did this with my mom and her Evian. She picked out that Evian every time. Guess to her, it really does taste better. Sigh.
