I recently purchase a 24 pack of Publix spring water 16.9 ounces and one of the bottles has this horrible smell, it smelled almost like sewer water and chemicals. The other water bottles seemed to smell and taste normal. I found out that some other person complained about the same thing, but they wouldn't test the water for her or tell her the results because the bottle was already opened. I'm going to avoid buying their water for now on.
Just opened a case of Publix spring water. I have always purchased Publix Spring Water and have never had a problem with it. My daughter complained today that her bottle tasted and smelled really weird. She said it tasted like the smell of pond water. Mine was fine. My son's was find as well. I just opened another bottle and it was horrid. Smelled exactly like my daughter described. Like stagnant pond water. Tasted like a mouthful of chemicals. I am returning all the unopened bottles to Publix tomorrow.
Same thing happened to me today! It was the 23rd bottle of a 24 pack and its the only one that smelled horrible like urine! I'm so grossed out, and not sure what to do!
My son just opened the first bottled water in the case of Publix Spring Water and it smells terrible. Like Stagnant pond water mixed with urine. It is a very strong smell. Not sure what to do, besides take the case back to Publix to be reimbursed. Unfortunately my son took the first drink of it before he had me smell it.
Just had this happen to me. I have purchased Pubix Spring Water for a while now. I just opened and took a drink of a new 16.9 oz bottle and I cannot tell you how bad the taste and smell was. Unfortunately when I went to take a drink I was thirsty and did not hesitate slugging the first gulp down. Now I REALLY wish I would not have. I called the Publix hotline and they said they would have an investigator call me. I had to explain I am not worried about the reimbursement I just dont want to get sick from it. He said it could be 3-5 days.
We had the same issue...my wife and daughter both consumed it (gulping) before realizing. It smells like urine, but is clear. Same story...Niagara Waters called and said they would not test it because it was open. They were supposed to send us their contact information, but still have not (2 weeks later). We just wanted to make sure there were no pathogens in the water in case a round of antibiotics should be given or something. Terrible customer service...have not gotten anywhere with Publix yet either.
