Reply to comment by Curiosities in YSK: November 1 the grace period ends, and all food service establishments must maintain a sufficient supply of single-use plastic beverage straws that are not compostable and provide these, free of charge, to any person who requests one. by BarriBlue

I've had a paper straw sitting in a glass of coke for an hour and it was still intact + functional

Interesting. I forget which place gave me the paper straw that basically started flattening and getting weird in my iced tea, but it was annoying. Clearly there are some better ones than what I got.
