yes BUT:

+rain is often acid; groundwater never is.
+tap water doesn't come from ground water, it comes from bodies of water, which contribute far more directly to rain than the groundwater does.
+the tap water tastes bad because it's 'hard'--trace minerals. like kansas, only worse. it's not harmful to drink.
+eating a pepper from a plant that was watered with contaminated water is HIGHLY unlikely to hurt you. the contaminants generally don't get past the plants. that's the great thing about organic systems. they filter.
