Guys if your trying to go eco-friendly these straws are great. They come in their own container so they are easy to travel with. You get 4 different colors which makes it easy for kids or adults to know which straw belongs to whom. You also get a cleaning brush with each one. You can keep them for yourself or share them. Because these are portable you can put them in your purse, briefcase, suit case, even a backpack or lunch box. These straws are made of food-grade silicone and are 7.87 inches long. I'm loving the though of not having more straws in landfills, these are a great alternative.
