However, softdrink companies view bottled water as the next battleground for market share, as bottlers and restaurateurs are longing for the profits from it. A restaurant's typical markup (加价) on wine is 100 to 150 percent, while on bottled water it's often 300 to 500 percent. As a result, some restaurants are trying to sell more bottled water. Some of the more shameless tactics (手段) include putting attractive bottles on the table for a visual sell, listing brands on the menu without prices, and pouring bottled water without even asking the diners whether they want it.
Regardless of how it's sold, the popularity of bottled water taps into our desire for better health, our wish to appear educated, and even a longing for lost purity.
