I'm all for this kinda stuff, but metal straws seems like a really bad idea...

Reusable plastic straws seems more reasonable.
Did you see the post about pasta straws earlier this past week?

Metal straws are fine. They just can't be used with hot stuff and aren't easily moved. Ideally, there would be reusable straws of all types to account for different needs instead of this blanket plastic straw hate.

Is SPAM still a thing? My local State Fair got rid of the SPAM cooking contest this year because Hormel pulled their sponsorship of the contest at mine and other state fairs around the country, citing declining participation in the contests.
it definitely is still a thing

This is very cool :). Just went to do my transfer from Amazon Payments. There are two goodwill credits--each in the amount I tried to transfer during that snafu a couple of weeks back.

Everything still seems to work after massive Windows 10 update this morning - fingers crossed.

No, but I just Googled it. I didn't expect it to be literal pasta. I'm a little skeptical of the idea, but it's original I guess.

Metal straws are fine. They just can't be used with hot stuff and aren't easily moved. Ideally, there would be reusable straws of all types to account for different needs instead of this blanket plastic straw hate.
Imo the easiest solution for anyone that's concerned about it is to just not use straws. No adult should need one outside of a car anyway. 0 pollution, 0 cost, 0 effort.

Hi Everyone, I have done around 650 approved hits however, there are lots of surveys still locked. I only get 3-4 dollar worth survey every day whereas, there are hundreds of them still locked. How I get them or how to unlock them?

Honestly, personally, I can't remember the last time I used a straw. I always take off the lid on takeaway cups and drink.
