Wow, you really are that stupid, aren’t you Al?

You simply can’t handle the fact that “going green” may be a “great” thing.   And your words are so painful….

Ever hear of biodegradable plastic, Chapped Àss?    Like most Republican Bàstàrds, you only give a part of the story.   It’s easy to condemn, when Republican Bàstàrds seek to manipulate all avenues, to create anger and mistrust - it’s what you Bàstàrds do.

Then why don't the make the straw out of biodegradeable plastic?  seems like that would be easier

Simple, the purpose of the plastic wrap is to keep the clean & sanitary until it's used. Its water resistance isn't a requirement whereas the straw is in contact with a water-based beverage.  The straw's water resistance is a requirement.

..very early "plastics", it is made from cellulose, aka wood fiber, hemp, cotton,etc.  It is biodegradable and moisture resistant but not moisture-proof.
