People bitch and moan about straws. But this thought occurred to me recently, why don’t they offer reusable ones instead and just wash it with other tableware?

    Right, the true cost of the plastic isn’t something a business has to pay. They buy straws by the gross for pennies and there is no disposal fee.

    The disposal problem isn’t free but no restaurant would willingly pay one.
