Thank you for this perspective because I'm one of those who never saw the appeal to straws.

I just wanna say that paper straws are lined with PFAS and similar substances, I would NOT use them at all. Mark my words they'll be banned in the EU in 20 years.

I'd rather try a pasta straw, if the metal ones are not viable. If using plastic, prefer a more rigid plastic if possible, Policarbonate (like in a Nalgene bottle) is safer than Polyethylene; or at least I would avoid them with hot drinks.
