        All over the world 🌎 except US. Straws are banned also stores charge for plastic bags. NY needs to get on the bandwagon

        I need straws to protect my teeth so I need biodegradable/recyclable/edible straws still.

        What will they replace them with? Against, biodegradable and biocompatible plant based plastics solve the real problem - persistence of the product beyond it's usefulness. Instead, it's easier to jump on a bandwagon than to provide a long term solution.

        Best of luck peeps, y'all on your own. Sitting on the other side of the polluted pond, 1 wake up, 2 expect legal rejection. 3. Straws, plates, fxxking cups, bags, the insult of cutlery, the stupid plastic wrap, peeps, it's all back in your face until you wake up. 4 quit ignoring.
