Healthy Eating Cuts Costs!

I live in a hard water area too and the water is fine chilled!

I filter my water, in a hard water area near London, for around £2.50 a month and I also use the filtered water for my cats, to encourage them to drink in this hot weather, as does my husband, some months if I've not filtered loads, I reuse the filter by resetting the computer for a month on the filter.

I've never myself understood why people choose to remove minerals from their drinking water.

I live in a hard water area too, and I don't see the problem with drinking tap water. I don't filter it either.

I'm trying to do this but it's lunches for the kids that worry me - if I put too much fruit and veg in their lunchboxes they come home ravenous. Breakfast and tea we have no issues with but what does everyone do for kids lunches and snacks?

You can out healthy proteins I. Cheese turkey brown bread our local school doesn't allow greasy food like sausage rolls and pasty or too many crisps or chocolates . Total change from the school dinners we used to have as a child

I think it depends what you're used to. I grew up in a soft water area and every summer we went on holiday to a hard water area. I only drink water so, for me, I had to buy bottled as the hard stuff tastes vile when you don't grow up drinking it.
