If you're mad about the straw ban and hate paper straws, you should know that there are far better biodegradable straws that are comparable in price to paper straws and don't break down while you're drinking. I use bamboo, but I've also used straws made from PLA, sugar cane, seaweed, and other things. All superior to paper straws in every way.

Any business that's uses paper straws hates you and is punishing you for the fraction of a penny per $2 drink that it costs them to comply with the law.

I keep a box of bamboo straws in my car so I never have to use a paper straw (or plastic straw).

Gonnna look into bamboo straws, thank you! I use reusable straws (wash after each use) at home and I hate plastic straws when I'm out! They flatten in my slushies LOL so I'm gonna carry around biodegradable straws moving forward, thanks!

I'm going to assume you're an adult. I haven't used a straw in 40 years. We can all drink from a cup
