Damn they just reinvented the go-cup lid. This is clearly the lid of the future.

I will be honest I'm crying back those cheap plastic straws since McDonalds switched them off to paper

I grew up in Louisiana and one of the first few restaurants is in my home town. I used to love the old school Popeyes yellow and orange striped straw bc of the bigger diameter. It was a trade off because you went through the drink quicker. Not sure when they changed to this one.
They did used to charge .25 or .50 for a refill back in the day though so I think it was a carry over from that. Al Copeland was a shrewd businessman that way. He also retained the recipe to all his spices so that the people he sold the restaurant to still had to buy them from his company. Crazy that a cancerous salivary gland took him out. RIP

It actually seems kinda convenient for fast drivers,have the off center lid facing forwards, and you won't spill anything when you accelerate.
