Survey Results

 


What were the results of the blind taste test?

     Before the taste test, kids were wondering where the water came from and did not sound like they would want to try it.  One kid even asked if it was pond scum water.  From things like that, we figured that we might have a hard time getting fifty kids to do our test.  We were surprised when we had tons of requests beyond the fifty and kids kept coming up to the table who hadn't been chosen at all.  Everyone had a good time.
    The results are below:

Graph: What kind of water do you have in your house?
     In our local area, wells ARE the biggest water supply so these results were not a surprise.  We were a little surprised that there were so many kids that didn't know where their water came from.  We are hoping this site will help!
Graph: Does your house have a water filter?
     We put this question in because we were curious about how many people filtered their own water in some way or even knew what a filter was.  We were surprised with the number of kids who knew that they did have one.

Graph:  What kind of water do you like best?

Graph:  Actual taste test preferences

     The two graphs above show the results of the questions we were most curious about.  The graph on the left above is what the kids said before they drank the water.  The graph on the right is the result of the blind taste test and what they actually did like better.  It seems that some of the kids who thought they liked bottled water better, actually liked the town water the best.  We had predicted that bottled water would be the highest, and it was.

Water Wise Facts

The water in a garden hose is safe but drinking out of the hose isn't.  The hose has chemicals in it to keep the hose bendable and they aren't good for you.
