It's also a pretty powerful laxative, so this would be a bad idea

I really wanted to run or include a hangry barbarian - basically with every few hours without eating their attacks get stronger but their wisdom & charisma take a hit. At a certain point they'd involuntarily rage. The mechanics were too fiddly to do it with any structure but I still want to use it as an element with an NPC someday.
Seattle, United States - we drink without boiling although a water district in the area has semi-annual boil water orders for e. Coli and stuff. I've lived in water districts where the tap water tastes funny and lots of people put it through a cheap filter, but I've never minded the flavor.
Basically, the default here is that you don't need to boil or filter your water.... But sometimes contamination happens and then everyone freaks out for a week or so.
