Based on my experience I would not recommend this product to anyone. Although the stripes looked vibrant and fun, they were not worth the money and effort .The only pro was that they were made of paper, which is better for the environment than plastic. However, the cons outweighed this. The straws were flimsy and kept falling apart, MAKING them unusable. Overall, I was disappointed with this purchase and would not buy anything from this brand again. Not worth risking the health and household..See full review
