The Tap Water Challenge #2 – Hwa Chong Institution
We conducted our second Tap Water Challenge on 24 May at Hwa Chong Institution. 54 students were asked to taste 2 types of water (without knowing which is which) – one is tap water from the venue, the other is bottled water (Ice Mountain from Malaysia).
The results show:
41% of the students think that tap water tastes better.
33% of the students think that Ice Mountain bottled water tastes better.
26% of the students think that there is no difference in taste between tap water and Ice Mountain bottled water.
The Tap Water Challenge shows that 67% of the students prefer the taste of tap water or could not taste the difference between tap and bottled water. Why drink bottled water imported from Malaysia when you can have clean drinking water from the tap in Singapore?
