Reply to comment by meantnothingatall 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

Yeah the rule is as dumb as banning 32 ounce sodas

Still cracks me up when I get a paper straw to use with my clearly single use plastic cup when I grab my coffee

Exactly! And all the single use plastic cutlery and plates.

Though by cracks me up what I really mean is it makes me irrationally angry about the stupidity of the whole thing.

I’m fine with it if they just go all the way. Blue bottle has really nice paper cups with bio lids. I’ve used eco friendly “plastic” forks and knives and they work just as well as the plastic ones. Just go all the way and not half ass it with a paper straw in a plastic cup. Or at least allow me to refill my water bottle at a slight discount. Works for me too
