METAL STRAW DEATH, WOMAN IMPALED THROUGH EYE

To the commenters who continue to press for the village/state/country/world (pick one) to save the planet and ban plastic straws, replacing them with paper or metal (despite "verifiable" medical conditions, the environmental and economic cost of paper straws etc.), here's a little something else to ponder: Metal drinking straw warning after death of woman impaled through eye https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2019/07/08/reusable-straws-safety-warning-issued-coroner-woman-dies-metal/?li_source=LI&li_medium=li-recommendation-widget

    Not surprised the UK did this. I know someone who accidentally chipped a tooth on one of these things.

    OMG! First, they are unsanitary. You have to thoroughly clean and sanitize them. Second, they just don't feel good against the teeth. I say let's get rid of the juiceboxes! Take that! At Sunset Park the other day, five kiddies all sipping away!
