🌿 Environmentally-Friendly Kikkerland Biodegradable Party Stripes Paper Straws - Multicolored (144 Count) Review

My kids and I love these straws and love that I can compost them while they are still around nothing "non-compostable" on it (like milk). They seem to soak up liquid fairly quickly, but I guess that's what you get if you want a safe and biodegradable glue to hold them together? Definitely worth the price.

I have found that the lifespan of these straws depends on the size of cup I use. If I use a giant 32-ounce mug, most of the straw gets submerged in water and breaks before I've finished my drink. However, the straw lasts a little longer with smaller cups. It's a small sacrifice for me to use a smaller cup and if a small contribution helps to eliminate a plastic straw then I will continue to do so. Great straws, so glad I found them!

These straws looked so good in glasses for the lemonade bar we had at my sister's party and for the cafe I set up for the bridal shower, although I didn't get a chance to take a picture of that. Everyone loved it. You'd only last for a shot or two and then get a little soggy, but that's what you'd expect from a paper straw. I really liked the colors and their execution. And it's hard to beat the price.
