That will surely bring down the price of eggs.
TBH, paper straws suck. And not because they fall apart, which is annoying but not the end of the world… But because they’re full of PFAS… Yeah, not fucking great.

I’ve never understood why we need straws. I get it for a milkshake but I don’t understand why a restaurant gives me a glass with a straw in it. Do people use straws at home?
I’d much prefer to drink acidic or staining things through a straw. Orange juice, iced coffee drinks, soft drinks. The less those things pass over my enamel the better.
There’s a few things, like you said some things truly do require a straw like a milkshake, or slushies, tbf they are “fun” even if that’s not a great reason, but I think the real reason people got hooked on them is drive throughs, they are undoubtedly much easier when you are driving.
I can’t imagine normal plastic straws great for microplastics
Wooden straws ftw
Bamboo straws are also often coated with PFAS.
Borosillicste straws?

Agave fiber straws. Literally just like a plastic straw, no PFAs but I’m sure there some reason I’m not supposed to use them.
I think a much more helpful replacement would be replacing the plastic tops with recycled paper tops.
He’s just going right down the facebook boomer wishlist isn’t he? Wonder when he’s going to sign off an EO banning participation trophies.
Nooooo, mi cheap gewgaw
He can’t even drink water with one hand, my money’s on the straws.
Paper straws are terrible. I feel like there should be more pressing things for the president to deal with than banning them though…
It’s a sign of how weak and neutered he is that all he can do is nonsense executive orders that have no enforceability
Real problems finally solved. ✅
I mean… It kind of is. I’m pretty happy. I’m the dystopia we live in got take the small wins
For years my reaction to this has always been the same. Who uses straws?
i use them pretty much exclusively but i have a collection of glass ones i reuse. i have a weird thing about drinking from an open cup so i always have a lid/straw.
I have collapsible metal ones… I bet yours clog way less when you’re drinking a thick smoothie, mine can be terrible. Are yours dishwasher safe?
you can get wider ones but mine are standard so they would clog probably, i got my first set here and they have extra wide ones. but now i just grab a set if i see them at Aldi or Ross.
they are dishwasher safe :)
Straws are for iced drinks and some desserts. I need one often, either so I can have a milkshake, or I can drink an iced beverage without the ice slipping into my mouth.
Ya ever go through a drive through?
People who buy fast food.
Maybe we are playing this wrong when dealing with trumps troglodyte personal greivance focus. Lets tell him Kamala Harris really likes her handgun and practices all the time --and Trump will outlaw handguns and gun ranges.
Biden spent a lot of years being “personally against” reproductive rights too, lets ask Trump what he thinks of that.
maybe this is as simple as using the kind of logic you’d normally use in dealing with an angry todler.
Doesn’t Don Jr. use rolled up hundreds?
Not for drinking. That’s for … something else.
