Thunder Bay residents overwhelmingly prefer the taste of the city’s tap water over its bottled competitor, a recent survey shows.

EcoSuperior asked the public to participate in its Back to the Tap challenge at the Chamber of Commerce Outdoors Show over the weekend. People were asked to take a blind taste test of three types of water – unfiltered from the tap, filtered, and bottled spring water.

EcoSuperior executive director Ellen Mortfield said she was surprised to find out more than 80 per cent of the participants chose one of the tap water options.
