The paper straws at a@w make the root beer taste like a dirty hippies hairy armpit.

Barf!
I find all of A&W drinks taste like a hairy hippie arm pit anyways. You order root beer because all the other drinks have a root beer taste to them anyways.

Plastic straw- made from endless supply of oil
paper straw- made from killing trees.....have you ever watched a tree grow?? Takes forever!! IDIOTS!

pretty soon us loggers will be the toast of the greenies! They can chain them selves to tree's and give us awards at the same time :)

OK, a part of me kinda wants to hear the story of how you know how a dirty hippies hairy armpit tastes? Should be a good one!

I don't know that this is something we need to hear about. Or at leat I don't need to hear about it.

Timmies drive through. There's always a hand full of straws in my vehicle.
Next time you are in McDonalds or 7/11 grab a handful of plastic straws for your glove box. Always be self reliant.
Why can't they make the straws out of the same stuff the cup is made from? That **** lasts forever.

For those that don't like straws, please tell me how are you going to get a thick, creamy, flavourful milkshake from Peter's Drive-in down. I suppose you could use a spoon if there were no straws.

Paper straws aren't gonna work and even the fatter plastic straw are a struggle.

Yes they decompose faster. But seriously,I think those metal ones are supposed to be reusable.Probably why they come with a cleaner.
So it’s better for the environment for me to throw away a metal straw than the plastic one every time I get a drink?

We found resorts don’t have straws.
Bring your own cups and straws

Keep it in your pocket?

But seriously, I've never been a fan of straws. Always used them to stir my drink, and then toss it on the table.
