I never have except for an annual pina colada or two in Florida. I have always said that straws have five uses.

1. Women who have lipstick on and don't want it on the glass

2. Frozen drinks

3. People who are dehydrated and you need to get fluids in them

4. Drinking from a canteen with a gas mask on

5. People who are infirm

After that they are just for people who suck. 😝

I added plastic straws to my medical preps when one of the Holler Neighbors got so sick he needed help out of bed to pee. Legit use for them.

Extra really obscure use- if you have a need for making a foraging/produce/laundry basket, a straw serves to shape the weaving material like pine needles, sweet grass, or cattail for a coil type utility basket. One for the “obscure nerdy stuff no one asked for” file.
