“How about paper straws? Are they PC?”
—
I grew up using paper straws——we would unroll/unwind them after usage-—and they WERE PC-——Pretty Cool.

They will get my straw when they pry it from my cold, dead Diet Coke covered fingers.

500 million straws per day? That’s ridiculous. That’s more than 1 straw every day for every man, woman and child in the country.
These fake news sources should employ some kind of common sense buffer dude who will flag their propaganda when it goes over the line from fake to absurd. Would help to keep them from looking like total flunkies all the time.

Plastic is a waste product of the petroleum-refining process. As long as the Stubbs folks drive cars, plastic is going to be created. Might as well make it into something useful like...oh... I dont know...plastic straws?

That would be 1.5 straws for EVERY man, woman, and child (plus all those humans who do not identify with the listed categories)in the United States, EVERY DAY.
I am not buying it.

The "no straws" movement is really big all over the world, and I don't really see what's wrong with it. We've got oceans with giant islands of waste plastic in them... There's nothing wrong with business owners making environmentally and bottom-line friendly decisions. Not EVERYTHING that's "green" is red on the inside.

My Schwinn mechanics and I grabbed a big handful of straws everytime we picked up our combined lunch order from Micky Dees or
The BK Lounge. After two summers we had enough straws to fill a chest freezer. Few of us ever even used sissy sticks. We had a lot of ketchup packs too. Haha. Stupid bbq joint.

How about paper straws?
If you use a white one you are a racist.
