PUR Flavor Options Adds Fruit Taste at the Tap
PUR is now selling water filters that can inject flavor into the water right at the tap (or right as you pour, should you choose to use the pitcher). As our needlessly anonymous tipster noted, "I bet this will lead to a lot of unintentional raspberry flavored hot dogs." Yum!
It's clever and everything, but I hate being beholden to a single company for replacements. Then again, I guess you already have to buy replacement filters from PUR, so...
It looks like replacement cartridges are about ten bucks for a two-pack on Amazon, but the reviews are certainly mixed, saying the flavor runs out pretty quickly, and what flavor there is tastes fairly "very artificial."

"Needlessly Anonymous" is my other online nickname. I forgot the name field.
I'd like to see a Dr Peppe flavor, since it's still semi-enjoyable when flat.
I like the contrast between "Pur water" and artificial flavor additives..... Personally I like the mystery flavor of plain tap water.
I make my own beer (took me 3 goes to type 'beer'. Heh.) and so have a tap from which beer flows already in my kitchen. Let me tell you, that shit never gets old...
