NEWater - My Thoughts

Sometime last night while I was having a late night snack, something about Newater struck me. If you're not familiar with Newater, does the connotation 'recycled shit sewage water' remind you of anything?

So to all you folks having psychological barriers about consuming Newater (don't even bother because the Public Utilities Board are mixing it into reservoirs anyway), think about drinking milk.


Well, as much as you dislike the thought of it, what we are actually drinking day in day out comes from the secretion-of-mammary-glands-of-cows (mammary glands are specialised sweat glands). So, thinking along.. these lines.. if we can all drink a cow's 'milk', we can all drink mankind's recycled, reprocessed, completely filtered out 'milk' right? Simple common sense.

Here's my dumb logic.

• Both are secreted out of the body. Man and animal.
• Both are in liquid form.
• Although both are ... on opposite spectrums of the health-benefit rainbow, whatever right?
• As far as milk is pasteurised, newater 'pasteurises' sewage too!

The only thing is NEWater probably only lacks minerals. But no worries, just dilute them with your Fernleaf/Lipton/Boh/Ribena and there goes your daily FDA recommended intake.

So all you self-proclaimed purists, kick that psychological barrier away. NEWater is the new water. Which is also why they called it NEWater. See? Wordplay.. I'm being stupid here. Kick me.
