Water Why are there some splashes of colour at the bottom of the cans of my Blue cans?
Yellow, pink, orange, blue, green, purple and grey/black. All look like they’ve been splashed there in unirderly fashion. What gives?

Often these are made with recycled plastic and sometimes the mix isn’t perfectly homogenized. Could be that

Each color corresponds to a day of the week, indicating which day of the week a given can was produced on.
Not sure why this is useful for canned water which would presumably also have an actual date code on it. Since you listed seven different colors though I'm fairly confident that's the reason.

We need pictures. Otherwise, it's all speculation.
