If they are drinking fountains then why not?

I remember when we were always advised not to drink the local water when going abroad.

I also remember when we used to have public drinking fountains over here. Life was nicer then. There are a few remnants but all sealed up and not working. Even those are gradually being removed/destroyed. It's such a shame. As a child I used to drink water, it came free. Nowadays kids drink cans of coke and apart from it not being healthy it also costs money and creates waste.
