Master Kazuya 05/06/21 3:33:52 PM #1:	Paper isn't meant to be submerged and in constant contact with moisture, who knew? The straw gets soggy and sometimes closes by either folding on itself vertically from the pressure of the succ or the tip closes up due to the moisture and pressure of the lips. The texture of the paper straw in my mouth feels awful. It's so grainy. Also I swear that paper has a taste. It's not pronounced but it still has a taste and interferes with the beverage. I think I'd rather pay 10cents for a normal straw than a paper straw for free. There must be some other way to save the planet. Why the fuck am I getting a paper straw when my cup is plastic? --- itt my post is the best <cite>Master Kazuya posted [p:953627852] in I hate pap...

Personally I never get a straw even for fast food. Honestly that's a pretty good solution. Doesn't collapse, texture and taste are good/neutral, biodegradable. You could collect your pasta straws and then make pasta for a night too, so that's neat. Actually on second thought, they're brittle af so you wouldn't be able to angle it all that well. I'd take it over a paper straw any day though. --- itt my post is the best <cite>Master Kazuya posted [p:953631629] in I hate pap...
