hello,

My name is Garrett. I was a sergeant in the Army. I got out after an injury and i still use some of the basic gear when im hunting, which brings me to my point. i was tired of tasting that nasty canteen flavor, so I made a Canteen Liner and I would like to offer you guys a chance to get some free samples and try them out. you can get them at canteenliner.com

thanks,

you guys pump me up!!!!

Thanks

Well apparently that site he linked no longer exists.

Whenever my canteens began to get a taste to them, I just rinsed them real good with bleach, followed by a through rinse with water, shake out the excess water and store them with the caps removed for ventilation.

Problem solved, no foul taste and no liner to fool with.

hydrogen peroxide. pour in a couple gulps full... shake the canteen and let it set a bit... wash it out thoroughly. Repeat as needed.

bleach? ewwwwwwie. i like being "not-dead"

There's nothing wrong with using bleach. After all, it's used in swimming pools (look closely at the label & you'll see pool use listed).

Exactly correctly.

Maybe I should have specified "Chlorine Bleach".

And of course, Chlorine is routinely added to water in municipal water facilities to kill bacteria in the water.

Most city dwellers drink Chlorine regularly.
