Why hemp straws aren't everywhere baffles me, they're perfect replacements.
Bamboo straws I like as well.
Like… I get that paper straws kind of suck. But my god. We’re a week away from the election and this is what he’s talking about. These people are so childish. It feels like he’s running for class president instead of PM.
I mean, class president is the closest thing to a job he's ever had, so....
what election hasn't felt like that?
Never even heard of hemp straws. And I'm near Vancouver, hippy Canada to older Eastern Canadians
I saw them at a coffee shop in Field, BC a few years ago and asked the owner about them, as I thought at first they were maybe pasta or some kind of starch-based bioplastic (the holder was just labelled 'biodegradable straws'); they felt just like a good sturdy plastic straw. The ones I saw were translucent beige, but websites I find them on show opaque green straws so I don't know what the difference is there.
We'll thanks for sharing the knowledge
