I always find it amazing how bottled water is seen as terrible yet bottles of pop/soda is never spoken about.

Pop is 90% to 99% water and far worse for people than just water even the diet types.

I think the answer is that there is no other reasonable way to deliver pop/soda besides bottles. Whereas we have infrastructure for water delivery.

I'm a big bottled water drinker, but if I had to make an argument for why bottled water makes less sense than pop/soda, that would be it.
