Plastic straws are a huge topic of conversation (and for good reason!). Making the switch to reusable straws is a small step that many of us have the ability to make in order to cut down on our individual plastic usage. If you aren't convinced that carrying around a reusable straw is for you, we've rounded up a couple options that prove it's easier than you think.
This metal straw is retractable, so you can adjust the length depending on the size of your drinking vessel (and shorten it when you want to seal the lid). It also has a silicon tip, which is great for all the "chewers" out there. The kit itself is very small and inconspicuous to carry around. And thanks to the brush provided, you can make sure your straw is always squeaky clean.
These thin, silicone straws are designed for coffee drinkers who don't want to stain their teeth. They have a unique oval opening and are angled so the liquid enters past your pearly whites. Dishwasher safe, these straws are easy to bend, so you can make them as compact as you like. Did we mention they're biodegradable?
