Why You Can’t Buy Dasani Water in Britain
Coca-Cola’s brand of bottled water, Dasani, was a flop in the UK after the public realised it was just filtered tap water. But the story’s a bit more complicated than it might seem. | Drinking Dasani with Ashens: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6VhcpwFZJM

If you wish I’d drunk some of this: so do I! And you’re in luck, because Ashens and I did just that over on his channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6VhcpwFZJM
Dasani has both a distinctive taste and aftertaste. It’s probably exactly as it was back in the day.
@Deflated Hypnotist every bottled water tastes the same to me: like ass.
I think it was ‘Brat Camp’ on Channel 4, where they sent naughty UK teens to the USA and one lad was moaning about having to drink cancerous Dasani.
1 Up unlisted for Patrons maybe ?
You walk so weird. What’s wrong with your hips?
I was just trying to take a walk, this guy kept following me, gabbing about Dasani. I slowly backed away for 10 minutes.
my fav POV video
What kind of idiot ‘backs away’ when someone is _following_ them?
This has potential as an ASMR video
Every feckin time, that’s why I stopped going out
😂 😂
Where i’m from, “tap water”, “mineral water” and “alkaline water” is the same thing. Not cuz we don’t distinguish the 3, but cuz we get alkaline mineral water from the tap…
XxWinterFlare im from chicago and we have the best water in the whole us. All other water in the us i hear is dogshit
@Eamonn Prunty Norway FTW…
In Ontario Canada tap water is overloaded with chlorine, cant drink without a filter jug unless you want to puke instantly.
@Ii T ??? I live in Ontario and everyone I know drinks tap water no problem. Well… I don’t but that’s just because I’m on a well and the water is very hard. When I’m in the city I drink tap and like the taste a lot better than bottled water. I suppose your areas water might be worse though.
@Cooper Olm Windsor, the water has a lot of chlorine smell and taste. You can make tea, cook food and everything else but drinking it instantly is hard.
In the 60’s there was a bottled water in Dorset called “Piddle Water” the water was from the Piddlehinton brewery? it was bottled water and in that area water was abstracted from the chalk basin where the Piddle flows.
Not sure what is worse that or if the hamlet of Shitterton, neighbouring Bere Regis decided to make bottled water
That sounds hilarious – I’d buy a bottle
OK so “piddle” has the same connotation in the UK as in the US? Fantastic.
Name aside, it does make sense. I guess brewers are rather particular regarding the quality of the water they use, so a brewery selling water is like a seal of approval.
9:12 The gloves are off, Coca-Cola. Your move.
I was wondering if anyone else noticed the pair of gloves on the road there. Rather ominous
6:28 you can see Tom smiling realizing that perfect pan
9:13 free pair of gloves if anybody is interested
“Can’t live without spunk”
I’m surprised that made it in the US without complaints.
Tom “One-take” Scott
Fr
“Can’t live without spunk” oh gods, that made my day
Quazar _omega no you won’t. 😉
K, so clearly spunk doesn’t mean energetic or lively in the UK… so what does it mean? What does it mean for someone to be “spunky?”
@Andrew Rakos Oh so I’m not crazy
@Giin spunk is common slang for male ejaculate
Kali Takumi ayyy we got a Nick Robinson fan!
I think Tom’s excited “one take!” at the end of these videos is the best part
This should be titled why waste money on marketing, get water at home.
Well, unless your tap water is flammable.
hreaper or similarly inflammable
The whole time I was watching, I was thinking to myself “I wonder how many takes this took?” Well done!
Tom: I need to record audio of myself talking, let’s do it NEXT TO A HIGHWAY WHILE I WALK FOR 10 MINS
Americans also drive on a parkway and park on a driveway
@Jacob Mccann doesnt even have to be a large road to be a highway, a 2 lane road can be called a highway
Cloudy Mind where I’m from….. roads lead to highways, highways lead to the interstate
@KingBooClem TV ah, fair
@The Jonin Cactuar that’s not an A-road, it’s a single carriageway
“That’s an odd location to film a video…”
*camera pans left*
“Okay then.”
Seems like OJ Simpson was around at the end at some point
Tom puts a lot of thought into these videos.
People are talking about Tom’s “one take” ability but nobody’s mentioning his ability to wear a red shirt and grey hoodie for the past 5+ years.
In my head I thought
“That’s cool and all but
Why is the bottle so blue?”
Best quote of the video:
“It’s all just water.”
Cedric Ye “here’s comes a Lorry” was better
“It’s basically coke without the syrup”
Gee, I didn’t think I’d mix codeine with my coke, that’s overkill.
Ever tried codeine with Dasani?? 🔥🔥 🔥
opioids? weeeak
mix robo with jager like an adult
Just do black tar heroin, trust me, you’ll never go back
“i forgot whats that body part called below our thigh?”
“dasani”
