I don’t fuck with ANY straw that ain’t metal
I'd suggest not fucking with anything that lacks a flared base.
Okay, but what kind of straws do you drink with?
... metal ones?
(It’s a joke about being literal with peoples words)
I use glass ones personally - tried plastic ones but kept biting them 🤦♂️.
Have you had any issues with rust on your straws? I've noticed some stainless steel stuff goes rusty if it's been left on some other wet steel item for a while, although I have no idea why that happens

Read the entire thing:
Of the straws tested in the study, those made of paper were the most likely to contain PFAS: The chemicals were detected in 18 out of 20 brands. Four out of five bamboo straws sampled contained PFAS, compared to three out of four plastic straws and two out of five glass straws. All five stainless steel straws analyzed were PFAS-free.
