I know it sounds silly to ask this after 2000 hours of play, but it has never really interested me until now and with google I found several different opinions, probably because they referred over time to different versions of the game... or also, quite simply, different opinions.
However the question is this:
In this version 1.13, the rainwater collected with a barrel left open can be direct drinking? That is, without having to use pills or boil it?

Thanks

The apple icon represents nutrition, not hunger or stomach volume.  Constantly eating will raise your nutrition and then you will become more resistant to diseases.  This is why you get cholera from drinking out of a pond as a fresh spawn.  You are less likely to get sick from 'dirty' water as you continue to survive because you're probably nurturing your nutrition stat.  

I have yet to get sick from drinking barrel water.
