No, they suck. They get soggy after a few minutes. I’d rather not use a straw at all.

Which brings me to my main point. The “paper straws” movement isn’t actually anti-climate-change or pro-ecology, but just virtue signalling. If it was real, they wouldn’t be advocating paper straws, they’d be advocating no straws at all! Hint: you don’t need a straw (the vast majority of people anyways).

Maybe the end goal of paper straw advocates really is that. If the only straws available are shitty ones, more people might prefer to go strawless.
