I didn't realize this was such a big deal. I've been vegan for years and will frequently go for long stretches without explicitly drinking water. The reason is that there is a ton of water in fruit and so don't get thirsty. That said, it's not clear why drinking water wouldn't be healthier for me/author. Sure theres a lot of water in fruit and vegetables: so why think it bad to drink more, explicitly?
