    The problem is fast food/restaurants/quick stops.

    I’ve never even thought of using a straw at home. But fast food/quick stops use disposable cups that aren’t structuraly sound without a lid, so you need straws.

    Restaurants give straws to everyone and then throw them away regardless of if they’re used, even tho their reusable glasses don’t need them. So people are just using them out of habit. I’ve heard “the glasses aren’t clean enough” which is ridiculous when you’re eating off plates with silverware that are washed exactly like the cups

      huh?

      Because food/restaurants/quick stops currently give out straw we can’t make them stop giving out straws? That makes no sense lol.
