Singer/songwriter Jack Johnson recently described the taste of Saratoga mineral water as "swallowing a fart". Hey, I am a firm believer in, if it smells off, don't consume it. To me, the mineral water at Saratoga Spa State Park doesn't smell enjoyable.

Jack Johnson, known for hits such as 'Upside Down', 'Better Together', and 'Sitting, Waiting, Wishing', played Saratoga Performing Arts Center (SPAC) on Wednesday June 24th. During the show Johnson shared his unpleasant experience of sampling the mineral water from the park. Watch the video below.

You never know what an artist will say to their audience while on stage. Monday night, for example, James Taylor echoed his love of performing at SPAC and how he and the band look forward to that date on the tour. He also restarted one song because, as he stated, 'I was in the wrong key'.

When Jack Johnson was on stage at SPAC he told a lighthearted story of exploring the park before the show when a woman that encouraged him to try the mineral water. Two Buttons Deep shared the video below.

This lady was riding by on a bike, and she was like, oh it's so good, you guys gotta drink from it. It's really good stuff. So I went over and took a big handful, and it smelled like a fart. I took a big gulp, swallowed it, and it was like swallowing a fart. - Jack Johnson on Saratoga mineral water

I will never know if he is right or wrong.
