    I have a theory which is: just fuck straws

        That’s reasonable, but I imagine far more than 90% of straws dispensed are to people who don’t physically require a straw.

      Is the straw the top or the bottom in this theory?

        How about a spoon? Anyway, I would speculate that boba straws constitute a very small portion of straws used.

          And straws account for very little of the petroleum use and plastic waste in the world, yet here we are.
