As a German I find that to be a pretty wild generalization, especially comparing it to the US where tap water quality varies massively (Oregon vs say Michigan (Flint...)). German tap water tends to be quite good. I live in Berlin, where tap water is excellent (albeit with a lot of minerals/calcium). The vast majority of people I know drink tap water, sometimes filtered, sometimes with CO2 added, but tap water nontheless.

I think almost everyone does it when they’re young and they first start traveling. It’s not until you’ve gained more exposure to the size and diversity of the world that you realize you can’t draw conclusions about entire countries from a couple of experienced.
