There’s some evidence that bee stings help with arthritis. Also anecdotally, every beekeeper I’ve met credits bee stings with the fact that they’ve never had Lyme disease.

Guess who doesn’t have arthritis anymore.

Oh, I misinterpreted what they said about Massachusetts, but you’re right. I thought they have generally decent water and also couldn’t pass up the opportunity to complain about Florida’s water. I’m sure there are variances across the state, but what I’ve experienced in Florida is horrible, sulfur-smelling water. Walking around as people are watering their lawns at night is a noxious experience. But you’re also right that a lot of it can be attributed to the mineral content of water in a given place and what we’re used to (except for Florida… their water is objectively non-potable).

When I visited the U.S. the tap water there wasn’t really drinkable. People said it was fine, but my friend bought bottled water, which I paid for during my stay because the tap stuff smelled evil.

What else did you think about your visit to Florida?
