You can find them on eBay if you really want one... |

| I have a red label from Hurricane Andrew days. Picked it up in Homestead during a bit of marine salvage.
My can is super thin, almost like aluminum paper. |

| Waaaay back in the late 60's, we'd pickup drinking water cans discarded by railroad work crews by the tracks that went through/by my grandparents' farm in NW Arkansas.

| I think it's an awesome public service that they use their high volume filtration and canning to make water for disasters. quote: Originally posted by cslinger: I have a can. I have also drank a can and it SUCKS. I mean if you are in a bad way it's the best water ever and awesome that they do this but just as water goes it's rough. 
It's supposedly run thru the same filtration equipment as their "beer." Although, water is far from their beer's only problem.

That was the first time I saw water packaged was at a friend's house who worked for a railroad in the 60's. Had some kind of preservative additive. We pierced a can and it tasted like water. Not as good as tap water. |

Hahaha I always wondered this. I watched a few old civil defense videos and they were stocking shelters with basically soup cans full of water. Wondered how it would taste after a few years. |

And I remember when Coors was not sold east of the Rockies.
