That was the first one for me as well and I was surprised they included it. I have never seen a disposable straw that does the job well, except for plastic. I actively avoid restaurants that use the cardboard straws because of it. That's how bad they suck. I can't believe the EU was foolish enough to ban plastic straws when there just isn't an actual viable alternative.

Quality of non plastic straws has improved dramatically, I don't even notice they are not plastic anymore. Unless you are sucking on a drink for hours they don't disintegrate.

enjoy the paper straw coated in tasty PFAS i guess? As far as i can tell that’s the norm…

i avoid straws altogether.

> has improved dramatically

They are not covered with PFAS anymore?

Dramatically as in their ability of not melting while drinking.
