Brilliant, thanks for posting. I think Europe's bottled water could use some of the same treatment. I wonder how many tap water carbonation and mineralization (i.e. table salt ;) plants there are with alpine names.

Terrorism is not an enemy. It cannot be defeated. It's a tactic. It's about as sensible to say we declare war on night attacks and expect we're going to win that war. We're not going to win the war on terrorism. - retired U.S. Army general, William Odom
it is a difference if the average user cannot tell the difference or if you have no control at all... in EU water must not be insanitary and the standards are high. for a long time austrian mineral water had to show all included minerals and a chemical analysis on the label, and that does not have to be older than 1 or 2 years. http://www.geo.tu-freiberg.de/hydro/vorl_portal/gwb/mw_MTV-0905.pdf marius.

Yes, you have to show ingredients in the US too, but are you banned from calling in "Mineralwasser" if you add some salt to some tap water and put it in a fancy bottle? ;) Often times "spring water" can be water that is pumped out of the ground, i.e. a well.
The US also has rules regulating terms like "natural", etc., but business people around the world are very good at creative interpretation of laws, rules and regulations if it means they can make more money.
