What Jonathan decided

Giant Eagle wins ("congratulations Giant Eagle you're moving on to the next round"): taste was a tie; decided on Giant Eagle's double-your-money-back guarantee and Sam's Choice's past quality issues

Giant Eagle Purified

This one had a great run in #3669. The taste was a tie with Sam's Choice, but Giant Eagle won me over with its double-your-money-back guarantee and Sam's Choice's past quality issues. It later came in last in a five-water round won by Summit Springs RAW, so the magic did not last forever.

About Giant Eagle Purified

Giant Eagle's house-brand purified water is bottled at their own facility, Chestnut Ridge Beverage Co. in Latrobe, PA, a former LeNature's plant they bought out of bankruptcy in 2007 for about $23 million. They spent around $4 million getting it running again, and it produces the chain's waters, teas, and carbonated drinks.

Sam's Choice Purified Water

The taste was a tie with Giant Eagle, so the decision came down to extras: Giant Eagle's double-your-money-back guarantee won out, plus he remembered past quality issues with Sam's Choice.

About Sam's Choice Purified Water

Sam's Choice is Walmart's private-label brand, named for founder Sam Walton. The purified water is reverse-osmosis filtered with minerals added back for taste, and sells for pennies an ounce.
