Review on 🌱 200 Count 100% Plant-Based Compostable Straws - Plasticless Biodegradable Flexible Drinking Straws: An Exceptional Eco-Friendly Alternative to Plastic Straws by Liana Allen

This type of straw is biodegradable in a commercial composting facility. Please read the information about these PLA straws before purchasing. We bought them because we thought we were doing something great for the environment. The packaging clearly states that these straws can withstand 150 degrees Fahrenheit. Just think about your average compost heap and the temperature of the soil for a minute. You can't just compost these straws. There are better options that are less harmful. We heated one in 200 degree water for more than 5 minutes, took it out and put it in cold water, after that we could easily reshape and reuse it. Use stainless steel. Mermaid straws or another brand's reusable straws are much better. Also, this 4BlueOcean seller is not the same as 4Ocean. This is a bit misleading if you think you are getting a 4Ocean approved product. If I could send them back I would.
