Back to Plastic! Straws, that is.

I’m tired of drinking fast before my paper straw turns to mush.
Thank you!

 

1. He cant do that.

2. Plastic straws are a gimmick.
Americans arent filling the oceans with plastic strays. We toss them in the trash with our empty starbucks cup. No one says, "Lemme toss this cup real fast but lemme keep the straw to toss into the ocean". It is 200% a marketing ploy. There are studies that show it really has no inpact.

3. He still can't do it.

 

Do what I do, when I get a paper straw I ask for 8 more. Yeah, it's more trash but it's more biodegradable so there's that.

 

Just more of the firehose of BS to keep the left distracted and angry.

 

Think this is just for Federal procurement. Not for the commoners.

 

I assumed the dissolving straws phase ended awhile back because I don't remember getting one recently.

 

Most paper straws are PFAS riddled. Roll your tongue and slurp if you have the genes.

 

It's performance art for mouth breathers.

 

I just issued an executive order declaring that straws are for babies who dont know how to use their mouth

 

The argument here at the coast is it ends up in the water. Pretty sure we dont dump our starbucks trash cans off the pier.

Some studies/reports have stated that a little known secret is that plastic straws are made from already harvested material (for other purposes) while paper straws require separate deforestation while also noting the products that make paper waterproof are forever chemicals similar to plastic.

So a nothing burger OP?

 

Yep, unless you are frequenting the VA cafeteria.

 

"don't work" oops, Neocon Don admits he uses straws.

 

I'm so old I remember when paper straws were the norm. Although they were available in the '50s it plastic straws didn't become the default until the sixties.

 

really. For starters Dear Leader needs to stop using a straw when drinking cans of Diet Coke.

 

I did not know that.
Interesting.
