Do you drink tap water with ice or prefer bottled water while abroad?

Tap water in the US is generally safe to drink, unless you’ve been warned about the local water specifically for some reason.
Flint, Michigan shuffles awkwardly
Is it still fucked? Hasn’t it been like a decade?

I was in norway, water was great too, although different
I only buy bottled water when i need to. I dont like it as a product because of companies like nestle
Bottled water in general. If it’s tap water, never with ice, especially at the beginning since whatever pathogens around will be enriched in the ice maker if the establishment isn’t cleaning it regularly. If I’m around long enough, maybe a week, I’ll probably find out whatever precautions the locals take with the tap water and follow suit.
It’s generally fine in major US cities, but do check. It could be anywhere from Flint Michigan water to unregulated well water to being somewhat famous for its purity in the case of NYC. I’ve lived a few years in a town where the water doesn’t pose a health hazard, but the bad taste made everyone buy filters.
Tap water is fine most places, but bring a filter bottle if you think you might need it.
