Unless you suck the drink down in under 30 seconds it's not going to retain its straw form for very long in that bubbly soft-drink. To make one thick enough to not dissolve would require thick paper and it wouldn't justify the amount of deforestation required to mass produce them. Wax paper straws existed long before plastic straws ever did. And yet we switched to plastic for some reason. Kind of makes you think wax paper straws are inferior or something. Polypropylene straw manufacturing is more cost-effective than coating a paper tube in wax. That's why. If California wants to continuously make everything more expensive and drive out businesses and residents, then it's California's prerogative to do so. <cite>Questionmarktarius posted [p:907351242] in What does ...
