What do you mean by "Children will be drinking tap water starting at kindergarten and and stay like this their whole life."? Is there some sort of subtext here?

What do you mean by "Children will be drinking tap water starting at kindergarten and and stay like this their whole life."? Is there some sort of subtext here? In general I think it's great if you can safely drink tap water, saves the hassle and waste of getting bottled water all the time.
- rory 5y agoI think it might be a euphemism, but I'm not positive.
- oaiey 5y agoNo. It is literal. Tap water is generally healthy in Europe.
- rory 5y agoOh. I think it is in most of the US as well? Or at least, I haven't been anywhere in the US where it is unsafe. In some places it tastes kinda bad. I have actually been to a couple of places in (Eastern) Europe where I was told not to drink the tap water.
- oaiey 5y agoAbsolutely. Both your statements.
- dkjaudyeqooe 5y agoI think it's meant in contrast to kids drinking sodas from an early age.
- BrandoElFollito 5y agoYes, exactly - sorry for not having been clear.
- BrandoElFollito 5y agoSorry - I mean that we are not used to drink anything else with meals. This starts early and when you go to a canteen in a company there will be tap water by default. Maybe 1/10 people would take something else than water.
