One degrades in your mouth and the other doesn't...

  Maybe I haven't used ones like you have or perhaps I drink my drink fairly quickly compared to others, but I haven't really had this problem with paper straws in my area (they seem to be coated in wax). Certainly the portion in the drink can start to be soggy... but I'm the type of guy that isn't really interested in the drink after the ice starts to significantly melt.

    The paper ones I've been served drinks with have certainly been bad. OTOH I have used a couple of types of "biodegradable" straws, from mango peel or sugarcane or something, and they were 100% fine.
