Just bought a new set and I’m back to my glory days of being able to sip anything thoughtfully, slowly languorously (—more like langloriously—), and much less addictively.
I get to enjoy my drinks longer and saving money on overconsumption. Its good to have a little friction and slightly work for it a little ;)
Its far more satisfying especially with anything carbonated or rich.
Much much much better for pacing urself. Get them in a fun color or something easier on the eyes like black or dark grey/blue
Edit: please dont use them for noseclams (cocaine). Best stick with your friendly neighborhood $5 CAD, whatever € note. Dont invest in USD


Straws are about convenience to keep the kid in (preventing spills) and still being able to drink.
Lips also do that, though. Straws just do it from a distance.
Eh but with lips you have to ensure the lid is a super tight fit or else you get leaks and spills.
