  It’s because they dissolve within 5 minutes of use after poking them through the plastic lid.

  I was gifted a metal collapsible one recently because of my bitching about it and it’s a better experience.

    Oh, I’ve never heard of metal collapsing ones! When all this started about the straws I bought a set of metal straws too but I’ve never heard of collapsible metal straws. That could be a handy item to have on you

  They do kind of suck - and not just in the good way.

    The Maccies in my country stopped providing plastic straws, and printed on the side of the cup “We’ve stopped using plastic straws. To drink, remove lid. You’re not an infant”

    Lol
