While we all know that plastic straws are not the most eco-friendly way to drink an iced coffee or a delicious milkshake, paper alternatives just dissolve too quickly and end up annoying us every single time. Is there some other way to drink something through a straw without adding to the pollution in the world? There is now.
Stroodles is a company from the U.K. that makes biodegradable straws using nothing but wheat and water. That makes their straws eco-friendly, vegan, and edible. Additionally, they won’t change the flavor of your favorite drink and they can be used for at least an hour in cold drinks.
“Stroodles is not just another straw company! Stroodles is a movement. Stroodles is here to help fight plastic waste and straws are just our first channel of choice,” the company’s website reads. And in case you were wondering, they pack all the misshaped stroodles and send them to food banks so they don’t go to waste!
