        most larger chain grocery stores own or contract out beverages, and Milk,

        if they own or lease a Milk Plant the do Milk, and cultured product (cottage cheese, yogurt, etc) for store brands and some contacts for other store brands or name brands,

        why does this matter?

        cause each plant is basically a big bottling facility,

        so it is just as easy to blow a gallon jug and fill with whatever percentage milk, as it is to take the local tap water in the plant, run it thru a few filters, and call it bottled water,


        Safeway had a dairy in High Point, NC, that was sold to Winn Dixie, and then later someone else,,

        Kroger has a handful, not each does everything,

        the Westover Dairy in Lynchburg Va is Kroger owned, and produces Milk, some cultures, and gallon\2.5gal bottled water,

        Kroger owns a bottler in Bluefield Wva, that does canned soda's and bottled water,

        the profits in Bottled Water are damn good, and folks think it is something special,


        spring water has to originate from a spring,,, but is still processed like tap water, (filtered and bottled)


        wife likes bottled water, so I buy it from Aldi's (cheaper) and I just put a glass under the tap (we have well water,, damn tasty)
        I am reminded of Brother Dave Garner: "I was down in Hot Springs the other day, and them ignorant Arkansawyers are selling bottled water to those brilliant Yankees."

              Houston had a 95 inch main water main break last week and a boil water order through Sunday for the city. Schools shut down because of the lack of safe water. Then the run on water started.

              We are all old enough to know that stuff happens. Those who are prepared usually do ok. The city bungled the announcement and wasn't very clear with timely instructions. I'm betting many residents didn't know for hours that we had a problem.
