Just bought a new set and I’m back to my glory days of being able to sip anything thoughtfully, slowly languorously (—more like langloriously—, and much less addictively.
I get to enjoy my drinks longer and saving money on overconsumption. Its good to have a little friction and slightly work for it a little ;)
Its far more satisfying especially with anything carbonated or rich.
Much much much better for pacing urself. Get them in a fun color or something easier on the eyes like black or dark grey/blue


I have some stainless steel straws too and I’m more concerned about chipping a tooth than I am about stabbing myself in the eye and dying, but yeah, I agree they definitely have some safety concerns normal plastic straws do not.
