Funny how things change. 30 years ago drinking bottled water was considered snobby
I remember when it first started gaining popularity, and there were plenty of naysayers that couldn't believe people would pay for water. What I really can't believe is that people pay up to $10 for a bottle of water if the bottle is fancy enough.
It's still largely considered insane in most parts of the world.
I lived in lower middle class and saw plenty of bottled water.
