Rosselló managed to do just that.

And just to rub more salt on the wound:

unless it was actually spoiled or somehow tainted due to mismanagement, water does not go bad
reaching it’s expiration date is BS
especially in those circumstances - they’re recovering from a fucking hurricane

Water doesn’t go bad. Having a freshness date on a bottle of water makes about as much sense as having an expiration date on sugar or salt.

There are several reasons why water bottles come with an expiration date. The main one is government bureaucracy: Water is a consumable food product, and as such, it is subject to laws requiring expiration dates on all consumables, from bologna to lemonade.

Besides that, the expiration date on bottled water has certain benefits for the manufacturer.

Although water, in and of itself, does not go bad, the plastic bottle it is contained in does “expire,” and will eventually start leaching chemicals into the water. This won’t necessarily render the water toxic, but it might make it taste somewhat less than “mountain spring fresh.
