Clever, I’ve long battled with this 8-1 (or 7-1 with my Canuckedness), so this lends itself to some real practicality.

From an article today: Recently, I stopped by my neighborhood Exxon station to conduct a price test. A 20-ounce bottle of Aquafina water cost $1.57, including tax. A 20-ounce bottle of Pepsi also cost $1.57. Regular gas sold for $3.05 a gallon.

Yep - water costs the same as soda and three times as much as the gas.

So critics are asking: Why drink bottled water?

After all, it’s pricey. Packaging and shipping water consumes energy and contributes to global warming. Empty bottles add to litter and solid waste. And, as a rule, bottled water is no safer or healthier than the H2O that flows from municipal water systems.

What’s more, blind taste tests, while wholly unscientific, often show that few people can distinguish between bottled and tap water.

Where does water fall on the index?

JAM,
In China, bottled water is much safer than the stuff that comes out of the tap. At least, I hope so. Drinking unboiled, tap water is a sure way to end up in the bathroom for three days. Bottled water, priced between 2 and 3 RMB for a 1.5 liter bottle, is a much better alternative.

We don’t usually buy the bottled kind, though. We have the same environmental concerns that you do, and we also hate to run out of potable H2O. We filter our water to get out all of the heavy metals and chemicals. Then we boil it to kill the microbes. Our replaceable filter is supposed to last for a whole year and it cost us 80 RMB.

Since we are non-drivers, we don’t know how much petrol costs. Since it moves on a world market, I expect it’s pretty expensive. We will do some research and get back to you.

QD gas is roughly 4.7rmb a liter.

It sounds like you are buying the ‘top end’ baijiu - you can get 35% stuff in little green bottles that resemble grenades for a mere 2.5rmb.

@ash: Thanks for the filling us in.

Good stuff? So-so. As far as I can tell, the quality of the liquor is inversely proportional to its cost. Cheap erguotou (55% - 500 ml - 7 RMB) is the most drinkable Chinese spirit I’ve found. The brandy isn’t bad, though. We used to buy the street hooch, but Vlad told us we might get Jake leg, so we quit.
