    Imagine thinking US tapwater (where some places are known to have a dizzying amount of contaminants) is more drinkable than Brazilian tapwater, which is actually clean.

      Depending where in Brazil you are talking about. In Rio de Janeiro for example even public authorities recommend you to not drink tap water.
