BillyP said:Bottled water! I remember the first bottled water I ever saw for sale. It was for ironing and came in a gallon jug . You know, those new fangled irons that had steam. Then, years later, came along bottled drinking water. I thought to myself, who in the world will ever buy this? I figured it was some kind of fad but I guess I was wrong
That reminds me of a funny story. I can remember many years ago my father telling me about one of his hunting trips up to Maine back in the 60's. Walking through the fields one day he noticed a truck pull up alongside the road that said "Fresh Maine Spring Water". Guy gets out of the truck, takes a hand truck full of bottles over to the stream alongside the road and proceeds to fill the bottles with stream water. What was standing in the stream only 1/4 mile upstream? You guessed it, COWS.
Maybe they should called it "Fresh Maine Flavored Water".
