Volvic bottle water?

Question

This maybe a stupid question, But how come if volvic water has been filtered for millions of years in volcanoes why does it have a printed sell by date ????????

Answer 1

It's because it's tap water - like all bottled water, particularly Evian - which is Naive backwards.

Answer 2

Maybe because it's not vaccuum-sealed in the bottle which would cause bacteria growth?

Answer 3

Bacterial contamination is a risk.  Some polymers (plastics) can also degrade over time spoiling the water.

Answer 4

That's a cracking question maybe its because the water has got a shelf life of 2 million years and 14 days,  But the new advert with "Tyrannosaurus Alan" in it, isn't half good though don't you think.

Answer 5

its the bloody EU interfering again.

Answer 6

FDA regulations, and product death dating.

Answer 7

Because it has been taken out of its natural habitat maybe.

Answer 8

LOL   That's a good point!!
