    Instead of paper we should have gone stainless steel. Safe, strong, reusable, fully recyclable. Ive got a few and i love em personally but i get why people don’t go outta their way to have some

      I use metal straws as well. It’s a decent option.

      As for safe, wellllll… there’s some debate on it. People have been impaled when they tripped and fell while drinking from them. They’re also a bit more difficult to clean, since you just toss a plastic straw.

      First World problems, amirite? Gotta carry your own metal straw everywhere if you don’t like mushy PFAS.
