- If you’ve ever been to Walt Disney World, you might have at one time or another gone for a drink of water at one of the many water fountains on property. And if you have, there’s a chance you’ve experienced the, uh, unique taste of the water. So, why does Disney World water taste so bad?

“Water doesn’t have taste”
The lie we’ve been told since children but we all know that water has taste
Water has to be very pure for our dumb mouths to taste it, instead of whatevers dissolved in it. It taists kinda ozone-y
Yeh because some water "tastes" different
We once had a homework to compare different kinds of water, pH, conductivity, colour, taste, price, whatever. The taste was fairly problematic for a lot of people.
Same for me, honestly, it felt weird to say the water tasted wet or musty 🤔
It's best at home lmao
SHUT UP
I work in water treatment in central Florida. Short answer: Disney is too cheap to invest in filtering domestic water. They don’t see a ROI, they don’t invest.
That, or its their ploy to get people to buy their overpriced water bottles.
I went to FL once. I forgot my aunt's warning not to drink the water. It was Nasty.
@@bezoticallyyours83 Same thing happened to me, but I got sick since I'm not from Florida or the US at all. Water treatment being different from P.R, my stomach sort of committed die.
@@khoshekh7419 Aww that sucks. :(
Marmarie Ramos
Hey! I used to live in P.R., and what my family and I did when moving over to FL was buying a private filtering system. I’m aware most people can’t afford it, but you can probably go to any store like Walmart and buy a tiny filter for the kitchen sink. Either that, or the private filtering idea; the one we chose was so good that even the showers had drinkable water (nobody’s drinking shower water, of course).
@@bezoticallyyours83 Can confirm, it's a ploy to buying bottled water, pretty much anywhere. I was staying at a resort in Sarasota, and they provided 2 bottles (for a 5 person room, mind you), but other than that, you had to buy your own. They weren't cheap, like $1.50 a bottle (which was standard everywhere in the immediate area), and we aren't talking high end, like Fiji water. Just your average filtered tap water tossed in cheap plastic that shouldn't even cost a quarter.
And here I was thinking it was so you'd spend $6 on a bottle of Dasani (ew).
Same
I honestly think that might be a reason
Ik, Dasani is bad
They sell other water aside from dasani, they hav Niagara water, pretty bad water imo but id take it over dasani but i dont like tap water anyway, especially not from another state like Florida so drinking from their water fountains never crossed my mind🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️
i was just going to say that. and im pretty sure thats the truth.
Let’s be real, they do it to make you want to spend $9 for a bottle water
I'M DEAD BECAUSE YOU MIGHT LEGITIMATELY BE RIGHT 😂😂😂
and it is probably Dasani which has salt in it so it makes you want to buy another one,
There goes your money :)
i've never been to didney worl. hopefully it better den didney lan.

For some reason I had a flashback as a kid thinking why the water tastes so bad. Must have buried it in my subconscious.

We only refill in the Starbucks locations at the parks. Starbucks filters their water so we’ve never had a funny taste
You fancy fuck

@@senther5590
Yup! Free venti ice waters at all Starbucks!
Wait, you go there so often, you have a plan for finding the best water? Okay. How much water do you drink anyway?
I've been there a few times over decades, but never noticed a water taste at all. We might have a tea or juice during the day with meals, but I can't say we just chug water so much that we need a Disney water plan LOL
@@studebricker2845 Floridians get discounts and specials all the time. Also, it's hot and humid there and bottled water is crazy expensive in park, so people on a budget get creative.
The good part about this is when I was staying at a relative's place in Orlando and I took a long shower I could just close my eyes and the smell made me feel like I was right back on Pirates of the Caribbean
Hahah
That idea terrifies me for some reason
You get me!
That's the chlorine
I made sure to get the most melodramatic water b-roll possible when editing this video.
Edit: Also, I realize now that I accidentally say southwest instead of southeast.
Great video Rob! ☺ but does it taste bad?! Does it? ! I never minded it... mind you , that was 20 years ago! Haha.
Wished I hadn't watched this... it's going to taint (excuse the pun) the taste of the water when I drink it in a months time! 😕
Still a great video Rob! Love by our channel! 😉 O.O.K 💙
You do what you can!
Still no breaks in the mystery of why the Swan and Dolphin is missing aviation warning lights?
As a dual certified water and wastewater operator, that was a very accurate and well put together video and explaination.
I love your videos Rob, but I feel there’s one thing that needs to be addressed here: when I visited WDW for the 1st time in May of 1998 I distinctly remember how every water fountain throughout the parks pumped low temperature water and since I was in the May Orlando heat it was delicious and refreshing. It’s something I’ll never forget because I’d never had water from a free water fountain being pumped cold anywhere before and I’ve never had again since then either.
Fast forward to 2007 on my second visit (and every visit since then) and the water fountains now only pump room temperature water which in summer is not what you want and I found myself buying the $2.99 ice cold water bottles they sold at every stand.
I hated this change and I can’t help but feel it was done on purpose so guests would rather buy cold water bottles rather than just drink cold water from the free fountains.
Is there any truth in what I just said or is my memory playing tricks on me?
PS: I never noticed anything strange in the taste of the WDW water, to be honest. It was the temperature of it during summer that made me want to steer clear from it.
I noticed that the tap water in FL tastes so weird in comparison to the water where I used to live (NJ)
Now i’m not american but i have noticed a difference between the water at my home and at my dad’s home at my dad’s home it has this very chlorine esque aftertaste at first i thought it was due to the bottle i was drinking from but it turns out it wasn’t the bottle because straight from the tap it tastes exactly the same (not really good in my opinion) the water at my house however has a slightly metallic taste that is very minor to a point where it actually makes it taste better and helps well with thirst because you’ll just end up scarfing it all down 😂
All I know is my parents warned me to never drink tap water in Florida. They used to go there alot, so I believe them.
Sulfates are used in wine and other fermented drinks to prevent bugs in Vats, considering the massive mosquito population, not a terrible side effect
Same here I'm from the Chicago area and every time I'm in Daytona the Water just doesn't taste as good down there as it does by me.
@@slipstreamxr3763 i'm from near peoria and lived in daytona for 10 years. i never found daytona's CITY water to taste strange. but when you start moving outside of the city, ormond, tomoka estates especially, or to the west or any private well, yeah. nasty ass sulfer water. smells too bad to drink but when you have to bath in it or do laundry or dishes...soap just can't make that smell go away.
I was fully expecting the answer to be: “Disney makes their free water taste bad so you want to buy bottled water instead” lmao
Editor: how many stock videos do you want in the video?
Rob: yes.

I thought they did that on purpose so you'd buy their drinks, nonetheless, it is good for business natural or not
Well, I mean, Disney COULD invest in putting filters on their machines but then you'd actually want to drink it instead of buying that 7 dollar bottle.
Florida, Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina now in the Southwestern US.
LMFAOOO 😆😆😆
I'm glad I'm not the only one who heard that and was like WTF lol
Maybe the water is also shipped to the Southwestern US? Probably not!

Bruh, I really wasn't interested into going to Disneyworld Paris as a kid to be honest. Too much people, takes a long time to go to your ride, the attractions doesn't seem attractive, whatever.
I dont care ‘bout disney world anyways
Animal Kingdom water tastes the best of all the parks. Actually tastes more like chlorine(not good, but an improvement over farts).
AND WE DANCE. VLOGS My mom says that in Hollywood studios, she has found a few water fountains that taste normal. She has figured out where they are and she always uses only those.
You know too much about this
This is probably because DAK is directly south of the domestic water plant, thus the chlorine is still active and at a higher quantity. Also possibly if they could let the water settle in the tanks longer the sulfur taste wouldn't be so bad... But they don't use aeration via the normal methods that most water plants in the area use, instead they use blowers to aerate the water to make the chlorine do its magic.
LillyBubbles ha! same, the one by star tours an the one by the muppets bathrooms are our go to at Hollywood Studios 😂
I thought animal kingdoms water tasted like dirt 😂
1:28 Damn those southwesterns, stealing all the southeasts water!

Hi Mr giraffe. Why u still alive when u business outta town
@y a y what do u mean
Adam Hernandez run I’ll take care of him
SHORT ANSWER: They want you to buy their drinks
I thought that would be his reason before i played it.
Better that than to risk ingestion poisoning or whatever. But last year I was there, the fountain water tasted alright.
Nah it’s because they’re in Florida
Thats... just completly wrong and not at all what he said in the video
Niko but you can easily tell that’s what they’re trying to do, sell overpriced average water
For whatever reason, fountain water at the Magic Kingdom tastes more sulfuric than the water at the other three theme parks.
Hint: The colder the water, the less you can taste the sulfur.
Swamp Sagacity I noticed that the first time I visited WDW! Basically, I dubbed the water from Magic Kingdom, “that disgusting gator water”...for some reason!
I agree 100%...only an issue in MK...every other park is much better.
I filled my water at the fountain in line for Pirates of the Caribbean, and when I went to drink it later the smell was just like that smell you get waiting in line for a boat ride. I dumped it out XD.
It's the oldest of the parks? Perhaps the others have better filtration tech? Or maybe it's that bit further from the others so is drawing from a different well?
i bring a nice insulated cup and fill it with ice in the morning so it stays cold the whole day
Word of advice- use Brita water bottles that have filters in them. It really helps get rid of the nasty taste.
Stephon TheDon just take your own water bottle from home lmao, every time I go with my family of four I take 8 waters in my cooler backpack. Nothing better than cold smart water.
Stephon TheDon The water is safe to drink, but tastes terrible. Brita water filters will remove any of the other contaminants that may concern you as well as reduce the off flavour.
It reduces the odd flavor but does it elminate it
Stephon TheDon priding yourself in spending unnecessary money is just wasteful. Buying a filtered water bottle isn’t “cheap”, it’s efficient.
As opposed to brita water bottles without filters in them?

Pro tip: the water at the Starbucks in the parks generally doesn’t have the sulfur taste and you don’t need to buy anything to get water from them. As long as you are ok with waiting in a Starbucks line. Also, highly recommend bringing a yeti or another brand of insulated water bottle with you to the parks to put the Starbucks water in so it stays nice and cold all day!

Because they sacrifice people in the water as a ritual
Holy crap was not expecting 500 likes thanks lolol
I'm afraid you are wrong. They sacrifice bank accounts. You silly.
They do that in the woods and underneath Disneyland
They do!! I have the documents!!
Do you hear those black helicopters??!?!
Wrong, that would actually taste really good, you should try dead body water once
It's rat urine in the water.
Tons of WDW planning websites and channels: "Did you know you can get free water all over the parks?"
Rob: "Why does the water taste like farts?"
Slight exaggeration, but I am glad someone is talking about how gross it is.
You have to make a decision
Pay 5.50 plus tax depends on where you are at
Or drink water that taste gross/hot 😤
Yes, but does the water taste worse than Beverly?

Between 1 and 10 10 being bad I say
8 it's gross to drink and worse if it is hot
But not bad after you drink it you get sick or there thin layer on it
@@lizethflores1730 or get a filter bottle (britta or bobble bottle works) and never taste the fart water again :)
@@vincelamb4063 it's a tie
Shorter answer: Disney = El cheapo
I tasted the water there and I was so dehydrated I thought it tasted amazing, so I filled a water bottle with it for later. That night after dinner when I was hydrated, I drank it and it tasted so bad I genuinely couldn’t believe I thought it tasted good earlier.
Step 1: find a water fountain that is in a shady spot.
Step 2: press button and hold for about 10 seconds, longer if you think no one has used this fountain in the past few minutes.
Step 3: check water flow. If the stream is weak, skip ahead to Step 9.
Step 4: listen for the sound of the chiller turning on, if it isn't already running.
Step 5a: If the chiller turns on, skip ahead to step 7 or...
Step 5b: if the chiller isn't running, skip ahead to step 9.
Step 6: test water temperature with your finger, or have a quick taste if you are a daring sort of soul.
Step 7a: If the water is warm, skip ahead to step 9 or...
Step 7b: if the water is cool, skip to Step 8.
Step 8: have a drink, frown, and then buy a bottle of water.
Step 9: Proceed to step 1.
Excellent procedure! THANKS! :|
...are you like, a waterboy?
Please don't stick your finger in a public water fountain. Gross.
@@julierenner2896 I think he means just in the running water, not on the actual .. uh...faucet? I guess? dispenser? water-shooter-outter thingy?
You have to know that water sits in those pipes for so long as well unless people are always using it.
when i clicked on this vid i assumed the answer would be because they want you to buy bottled water
duffy essentially that’s what it is. They are too cheap to put in a filtration system so it steers you to the bottled stuff
That's the truth tho
If that was the reason, it would be the same in all resorts. But it's not.
I don't know for others, but water fontains in Disneyland Paris just tastes better than Vittel water bottles for me 😅 They are sold 3.29€ for 50cl.
I was born and raised in Florida...and this is the first time I've heard the word Floridan. It seems it is only really used when referring to the aquifers. Everything else from Florida (including me) is referred to as Floridian. (My hometown, Eustis, has great tasting water...while our next-door neighbor, Mt. Dora, has much worse tasting water than Reedy Creek!)
I definitely thought 'Floridan' was a typo at first. Then Wikipedia confirmed Rob was correct, as usual.
[Another Central Floridian here. I've never minded Disney water]
@@simplebutpowerful We're just used to drinking water that comes out of the ground I guess. :)
Maybe it’s an archaic term, like Texian.
Yummy yummy Zephyr Hills H2O
Wow I was born and raised in Florida and I was today years old I knew that 😑
I remember going to disney when I was 5 and my father said the reason the water was so bad was because Disney was just recycling all the water from the urinals and pipping it directly back into the water fountains to make people buy bottled water.
Heartwarming glimpse into your father’s black soul.

Well it's 50 million in the SE and 10 million in the SE.
The aquifer is REALLY big.
You can also have bottled water delivered to your room and carry it into the parks rather than buy their marked-up Dasani bottles.
We usually get a small pack of 16oz bottles and several large jugs to refill them with. It's cheaper and wastes less plastic.
Sounds way more convenient than clean tap water.
Short answer: all water in Florida tastes weird.
@Will E. Fisturgash I lived with my grandmother near Hollywood for a couple months. The water was gross. Lol even my mom who grew up in Florida agrees
nic yes it does
Disneyland in ca is not good either
you people haven't tasted weird compared to my old elementary school's water taste.

@@potatoanimations4785 You were suppose to drink out of the spout not the drain. 😁
I've been many times, but I've never bothered drinking from the fountains.
Mark Steven if you like crowds, waiting, rude entitled people, waiting, spending lots of money, waiting, driving for hours in gridlock, and waiting then you’ll have loads of fun.
Michael Smith, that’s kind of a cynical view. The rides and atmosphere (to me at least) out-ways those downsides.
Dawson Mueller is anything I said untrue?
Mark Steven I don’t know names, but there are good online resources that can give you a feel, including ones that are critical without going overboard. I wouldn’t begin to tell you without knowing you.
TheOfficialCzex I was a little surprised to hear that anyone had bothered.
If affordable sulfite filtering is slow, can't we just filter one large supply at a time and cycle between the tanks so there's always a supply of filtered water?
Haha I love the footage from The Land at 2:38.
This cracks me up. There are so many conversations out there about which fountain is the "best" fountain to go to 😂
The best fountain is at Club Cool
I guess it's not the water, it's the experience.
The best water is the toilet
I just always assumed it tasted so bad because I'm from Europe and the water is just different
Satanas WTF dude? A bit oversensitive there? He's right, people who aren't used to the taste are more likely to notice it.
@@Primalxbeast No, he's got a point, water can definitely be treated differently depending on what country you're in, which can cause it to taste off from what you're used to.
Depending on where you travel to, you might hear advice about not drinking local tap water, as it can be a great way to get yourself sick because of those differences.
I can easily see someone from another country visiting and assuming the taste being off is just because of that.
@@Primalxbeast And now I see you were replying to someone who's since deleted their comment. My mistake!
pikafreaka No problem, it was some dude who got offended and went off on the OP and was saying how filthy Europe was.
Disney World:
Sulfur in water, unpleasant to drink.
Disney Cruise Line:
Delicious water, nice and fresh tasting.
Ironically, cruise ships (which sail on undrinkable bodies of water) have the best tasting water

The same aquifer as The Fountain of Youth. Drink up!
Rob, your timing for me on this video is amazing. I just heard your podcast with Christine this morning during my walk where you explained your distaste of the drinking water from the fountains in WDW.

My dude straight called FLA , Georgia , and South Cakalacka the south west.... Nice editing
I was wondering if anybody else caught that lmao. My Floridian ass ain't Western 😂😂
of all the things they go out of there way to do like the fireworks for example they really couldnt budget to make the water taste good?
It’s not about the budget. They get the water from the local water plants in Orlando and central Florida. All water in Orlando and the surrounding area tastes like that actually. It’s just because they put more of some chemical in it. I live in Miami 4 hours south and they have different plants so the water tastes better. And Disney isn’t gonna spend money to produce there own line of water when they can get other companies like zephyrhills or Dasani. And water fountains come from those local water plants
It's because when all the guests leave, the Disney characters get piss drunk and Mickey ends up peeing in the fountain.
You can actually get any size water for free at the Starbucks in each WDW park, and it's triple filtered. Doesn't have a weird taste, best free water you can get at WDW.
This man is asking the real questions good job 😂 I always wondered this
Pretty sure they aren't going to do anything about it so they can sell you a bottle for like $8-10. They don't even have to pay for their Coke products, from what I hear they get it for free.
$3.50 - $4 for a bottle of water. Not double that ha. Disney hasn’t quite gone to sporting event prices yet.
Really great job on this video. Informative and entertaining at the same time. A very hard balance to achieve and you pulled it off gracefully. Bravo!
Was it just me expecting the answer to be "So you buy bottled water"?
Milligram should be mg (lower case m). Upper case Mg is megagram. Just saying.
For reference, a megagram would be the same as a metric ton.
Oooh! I forgot about the fart water! That reminds me to get filter bottles for the next family trip! Thanks Rob!
As always, answering the real questions I have, Rob!
If your at disney go to starbucks and ask for a ice water, its triple distilled
I know this is Disney World specific but honestly even Disney Land in California's water from fountains are pretty weird tasting. Dat Disney water man
I had the stomach flu when I was on the Disney Resort for a couple of days, I was fine before I arrived.. I drank their DISGUSTING water .. tea... juice.. all from the same source, unfiltered water, then I got sick. Even the smell of the cafeteria food made me have nausea...it was AWFUL. There SHOULD BE a CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT against Disney, regarding their water. I'm sure I am not the only one getting sick. Does someone have to die of water poisoning in order to get things done?
$3.50?? I was at Disney World in May 2019 and bottled water was $4.50.
Where were you buying your water from? I worked in DHS until May 2019 and it was $3.50 everywhere I remember
@@PenguinHi5 Pretty much from every kiosk available that sold water. I can show you the receipts for the water purchases if you don't believe me.
@@AlbertCalis I mean, I believe you because I stopped working there in the middle of May but was it a regular dasani water? I'm just curious if they increased the snack prices again because in the parks I know that bottled soda and some of the flavored water cost $4.50 but regular dasani waters were $3.50
@@PenguinHi5 Yeah the prices of everything increased. I remember prior to this year, bottled soft drinks and water was $3.50 as you said, but this year, the prices went up to $4.50. I'm not surprised considering Disney recently jacked up the prices for annual passes recently.
@@AlbertCalis prices differ depending on where you are buying the product. Taxes differ from Disney resort to resort because they fall under different county jurisdictions within WDW.

A company that won’t bother to remove alligators from its tourist areas, will never waste the time and money to install water filters. Not to mention, if the free water tastes bad guests are more inclined to buy their $10 sodas.
William Brinkley they do remove the alligators, but in Florida, that’s like trying to stop a hurricane, or get rid of the mosquitos.
@@Caderic its funny that you mention mosquitos, as this guy made a video about how disney world got rid of mosquitos

FINALLY PEOPLE ARE RECOGNISING THIS!! I always told my family how bad the water was but they never agreed?!

With as much effort as Disney puts into the "park experience" they could certainly filter the water themselves. However, there would be costs associated with operating and maintaining that system. It makes more sense for them to just sell you bottled water.

How proud are you of that figment segment at the end lol
Extremely
I went to this camp where they had this natural spring of sulfur and they would make us drink throughout the whole camp. Apparently when we would sweat it out the mosquitoes would stay away from us
Growing up in the Tampa Bay area; people who had shallow wells for irrigation were smart to aim the sprinklers so as not to hit the house or driveway to prevent the staining. The water always smelled of sulphur. Domestic city water was always hard and the need for a whole house water softener. We had a deep, 200 feet or more well and the water was a lot better with less staining.
My grandma got sick from the water at disney many years ago, that’s why I always buy bottled 😫
Ahh yes. Mickey's Revenge

It's true!!! Ask anyone from out of state and they'll tell you, but I've spoken to the natives, and they swear it tastes fine... 😝😝😝
As a past Floridian, I can also second this
My house only got brackish water 3 months out of the year
@@sharonbizriguez it's cause we don't know what normal water taste like 😆
This was very informative, thank you. I'm sure Disney can still do something besides charge so much for a bottle of water.
I have a hack for this! You can go up to any (or at least most) kiosk and ask for a cup of ice water and they will give it to you for free! It’s an easy hack that you can do and if you have a huge party then you can use multiple cups to fill up a water jug too if you need!
When you get it from a fountain you taste the sulfur and phosphate because it is lukewarm. Just get the free cups of ice and throw it in your water bottle. Cold kills that flavor. It's weird but it works and you save money.
To all these people that aren't from Florida, welcome to our school waters. You get used to it.
If by used to it, you mean long term effects causing brain damage than yes. The safest amount of Sulphur in water is none at all and I may not be from Florida, I know enough that it's so hot down there that you guys would be drinking gallons just to stay hydrated.
@@Shanethefilmmaker the first time I had water up north I couldn't handle it, lmao I lowkey need that sulphur
Omg I grew up in Florida and later moved to a less developed country and I just remembered how weird it was when everything tasted differently. Like damn, I never even noticed the water was that bad lmao
Why am I watching this I've never even been to Disney world. Informative tho
You do know that Disney is really expensive to go even buying one of the cruise lines is also expensive I'd wouldn't go there just to waste my money I'd would actually go to Schlitterbahn Sea World or to Six Flags instead of going to Disney.
Incorrect. The best water fountain is at Coronado springs at bus stop 1. Just trust me
Naw, the benicia public library fountain.
Well if I'm ever in Colorado again I guess I gotta go see for myself
I am from Orlando and never realized how horrible the water was until I moved away. For the record, though, tap water in Daytona, Okeechobee, Clewiston, and Belle Glade is _worse_ .
Floridian here! I live 5 hours south from Orlando but have vacationed in / at Disney often. I went recently and my friend and I decided to make some tea with some of the tap water at an Air BnB near Disney.... long story short, it was gross too so now we just call it "Orlando water". It even smells way different from our water down here!
Or go to Starbucks and get a triple filtered water for free.
They only give you a grande size max. Just go to counter locations where soft drinks are served. Water is filtered most of the times.
David Cavazos depends on how nice you ask.
A favorite of fellow Floridian Reviewbrah
@@Hesperell unfortunately not much of a theme park reviewer despite having a season pass
Wait 3.50 for a bottle of water I wish 🤣
No it's 5.50 for a bottle of water 🤣
Is that at DisneyLand. I just went to Disney World and $3.50 is right
@@wickedwood04
No Disney world
I go there often to walk around Disney springs and around many resorts seen Disney world is in 3 country it's 5.50 +tax depends on what country you are at Disney world
@@lizethflores1730 I just checked the my Disney app for the parks at Disney World and its officially $3 for the normal water at all the food carts
SmartWater is 5.50
Regular water is 3.50
Bruh I’ve lived in Orlando all my life and not once in my life I have never drank water from a Disney water fountain
Same but not Orlando, I’m in south fl
I'm happy you answered the question within the first 30 seconds and then used the rest of the video to give us the reasoning behind it.
CRITICAL ERROR at 1:26: "10M people in the SouthWESTern United States"
Glad we get our drinking water from a river and the amount of filtration we put into it has made become known as the best tasting tap water in the U.S.
Pueblo Colorado?
Flint, Michigan.
Colorado water hits different
Ask whoever told you that to quantify their assertion. Problem one: people don’t even agree what water tastes best.
