L'Alpina Water is not Walmart water, which comes from Cleveland, Ohio. Gad, what must be in that water besides the chemicals from the plastic. Shajandr, you provide no link to support your allegations, so I have looked it up on behalf of shareholders.

Walmart buys from Magnetic Springs Water Company based in Ohio, not Oregon. You're mixing up your "O" states, or something. Goodness, what are you out to prove and why don't you support it with anything factual?

Walmart water IS fluoride-free, except for its NURSERY WATER for babies. Helllllloooooo.

"Great Value Spring Water and Great Value Purified Drinking Water (Walmart).
- What water quality report? When EWG called the phone number on the label, the company representative said she was not aware of any water quality report she could send to us (Walmart Stores Inc., Personal Communications, July 15, 2010). We called again on Nov. 30, 2010. The Walmart representative again said she knew nothing about a water quality report but promised that the manufacturer would call us directly within a few business days. On December 14th we finally received an email from the Magnetic Springs Water Company with the promised water quality report, five months after our first request."

You're whipping a dead horse with that argument, son.

Janus in Cove, Oregon bottles water for many different customers, and they have their own private label as well called Artesian Blue Water. They are only a REGIONAL supplier of water for Walmart, not national, and the water is in PLASTIC, not GLASS.

Yes, our source is special all right. About as pure and pristine as it gets.
