And they came apart so you could clean them easier.


I've actually never seen that, just full metal tube ones. Huh.


My girlfriend picked up a couple that are made up of four metal segments with a silicone tube running through them, allowing them to be folded up for storage. I haven't tried them out yet, since I pretty rarely use a straw for anything, but they seem pretty nifty.

Straws are the only things that are plastic.


On one hand, yeah, straws are a tiny drop in the ocean that is the world's plastic problem, and the people that act like they're accomplishing anything meaningful by latching on to that while not doing anything else are kidding themselves. On the other hand, straws are nonetheless part of the plastic problem, and really fairly easy to stop using (for the fully-abled), so there's no reason not to get on board with the effort to cut down on their use. It's just important to also keep generating demand for other plastic reduction strategies on top of that, rather than resting on one's laurels after buying a reusable straw.
