Our “purest water” 40 times more polluted than even the Chinese standards
NZ’s 100% clean and yellowish green “miracle water” contains 40 times more nitrate than even the Chinese allow in their diet.
Thanks to our state-of-the-art fertilizers, industrial dairy farming and tourism, all of which produce millions of tonnes of feces that we carefully spray EVERYWHERE, in order to scientifically dispose of, our best drinking water contains at least 40 times more nitrate [among googols of other colourful goolies,] than even the Chinese care for.
Hawke’s Bay company’s first shipment of drinking water rejected by China (OUCH!)
New water bottling company Miracle Water, near Hastings, sent its first shipment of drinking water to China late last year.
Company spokeswoman Louise Harvey said on arrival in China the water, which is drawn from the Heretaunga Plains, was found to contain nitrite levels too high for the local market.
“To class water as ‘spring or artesian’ for the New Zealand market the maximum level of the naturally occurring nitrite is 0.2mg/L while the Chinese maximum level is 0.005mg/L. Unfortunately the levels of nitrite were higher than the Chinese standard hence the product was returned,” she said. http://www.stuff.co.nz/business/76117504/hawkes-bay-companys-first-shipment-of-drinking-water-rejected-by-china
