Creating a matrix matching all foods with bottled waters would be impossible, and it would surely take the fun out of experimenting with various combinations. The rules below should be taken as starting points for an exploration. Use them when water is the only beverage you are serving. (The next section describes how to choose water when you’re also serving wine as the meal’s primary beverage.) The percentages indicate how much weight the factor should be given in making your choice.

When you open a bottle of Fiji Water today you drink the rain water that fell around 450 years ago at the time Balboa discovered the Pacific. Carbon dating tells that the what we drink today from a bottle of Fiji Water is rain that fell more than 450 years ago, and it has been percolating ever since through layers of silica, basalt and sandstone.

Much bottled water is really bottled municipal tap water—in the United States, government and industry estimate that municipal water makes up to 40% of the bottled water sold. It makes no sense to buy this processed water in a store and carry it home as you would be much better off buying a water filter, if you are not happy with the way your tap water tastes. Not to mention that we would reduce the amount of PET bottled by more the 40%.

Marketing campaigns for commodity bottled waters try to make us think water must be "pure" to be good. Being clean and healthy isn’t enough - water has to be pure, and the purer the better. These marketers tell us that nothing but hydrogen and oxygen should be in our water. Ironically, this misconception means people often drink distilled water when taking mineral supplements, which contain the same minerals that have been removed from the water.

The sorry state of the "glass culture" surrounding bottled water is a sure sign that the best of the bottled water trend is yet to come. Many fine restaurants overlook the emerging trend and fail to provide proper water glasses water, it quickly becomes clear, is usually an afterthought. I don’t mind paying eight dollars for a bottle of water, but I want it served in an appropriate glass. Instead, I’ve been served water in all possible vessels, from a heavy whiskey tumbler to a long highball glass and the dreaded lemonade glass.
