Is that why the American tourists in Europe always ask if tap water is drinkable?

  I got a nasty stomach bug from drinking the tap water in Sicily. And then I told the rest of America to watch out for the water in Europe. So it’s me; I’m the reason.

    Your messaging must have incredible reach! I've had my fair share of stomach discomforts while travelling, but I'm very unlikely to associate it with tap water unless I do a controlled self-study. More often its clearly from food prepared in unhygienic conditions, because that's the only variable during my travels and tap water is the norm for me.

  I'm American and noticed a trend in a subset of Americans that believe only their drinking water is potable. In some cases this applies even when they travel to other portions of the US.

  No, its cause a lot of American tap water isn't drinkable lol

    No, it's because a lot of the places Americans travel to like Mexico and the Caribbean have tap water that makes you sick.
