Tannourine Water Taken Off the Market While Lebanese Twitter Flooded with Jokes

Yesterday, Lebanon’s Ministry of Public Health officially suspended the operations of Tannourine Water Company and ordered the immediate withdrawal of its products from the market after lab tests revealed contamination with harmful bacteria, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa. This type of bacteria can affect the skin, blood, lungs, digestive system, and other parts of the body.

Of course, the Lebanese didn’t let the news slide, especially since many believed Tannourine had the cleanest water in the country and refused to drink anything else. Ever since the announcement, Twitter (now known as X) has been flooded with hilarious reactions.

Here are our favorite tweets about the Tannourine water scandal:

The ministry emphasized that the decision was made to protect public health. It will remain in effect until the company identifies the cause of the contamination and resolves it. Consumers are advised not to drink the water at this time and to report any potential health symptoms immediately.
