Well… yeah a lot of paper straws literally implode on themselves after about 2 good sucks. I tried going reusable metal straw but it started growing something in it even though I washed it daily. I think the old myth that the plastic straws were killing turtles has run aground seeing as that floating island of garbage is all fishing gear and cigarettes… so I just want to go back to plastic straws so I can enjoy a thick milkshake even if Im getting a heavier dose of microplastics my brain is full of them anyways from sitting here on my plastic sofa.

Were you rinsing it or actually using a narrow bottle brush to wash the metal straw?
I’ve got some silicone straws and haven’t had that problem, although their softness makes them awkward to push in a plastic drink lid.
