What is the problem?

 In the many internet lists of shocking things kids did growing up in the 1960’s or 1970’s, one thing always gets listed: drinking from the water hose. 

Where I grew up and where I live now the water in my hose is the same as comes out my tap. I fail to understand the issue. 

I guess it’s because I drank from the hose more times than I could count as a kid.

We drank from the hose because if we went inside we were likely to something along the lines of:

"Back outside with those dirty (bare) feet! I JUST washed that floor!"

Drank from the hose my entire childhood and so far, I'm fine.
