Someone who works at a bar told me recently that they “discovered” long tubular pasta (forgot the exact name) to be the best organic straws. PS: You’re welcome

- mcronce 4y agoThe bar I frequent uses straws made of biodegradable material derived from sugarcane - they last a lot longer than paper straws, but ultimately are water soluble and will dissolve after a day ish if submerged. They obviously cost a lot more than plastic, but the user experience is just as good without the forever waste.
- Nextgrid 4y agoFrom an ecological point of view it really depends how much carbon is emitted during manufacturing & transport. Landfills aren’t actually that bad when it comes to getting rid of waste. If you expend more carbon using the “eco-friendly” straws than using the normal ones then it’s not worth it overall.
