All new mothers, at least the ones I know in San Cristobal, buy this special baby water for their infants to make formula with. They say that the 5Gal. bottled water is not good enough. Is this a scam?
i am not a mother but i sell "special baby water". it goes out well, both orbis and planeta azul.
Dan, 30 years ago when our children were born, we were told to mix ONLY with Aqua Orbis. It's sold in supermarkets in the baby food aisle, as well as in farmacias. It's a distinctive blue gallon bottle. When our grandsons came here, it was still recommended, and that's what we used each time.
I'm sure there are many babies who have done just fine on other waters here, but I wouldn't ever take a chance with my family over a few cents.
Recently the government has issued warnings about some bottled water sold in DR. I've been told to only buy Crystal or Planeta Azul for adult consumption/cooking/washing veggies, etc.
