People bitch and moan about straws. But this thought occurred to me recently, why don’t they offer reusable ones instead and just wash it with other tableware?

You could just learn to drink like a grown up.
Then I’ll have to get it without ice, my teeth are pretty sensitive
Why is “with ice” the default option for drinks in the US? For beverages, the restaurant is saving money, but for water?
Because its cold and refreshing? Ice water stays cold longer than not ice water.
Water is best served at a bit below room temperature (maybe 50° F/10° C). I don’t want my teeth hurting and my throat frozen. Also, waiters should be good around and refilling water glasses, not dropping off my food and GTFO until I am done eating.
ice is twice as nice
It’s an accessibility thing. Some people struggle without a straw (elderly, disabled, etc). Straws are also convenient if you’re wearing lipstick.
That’s such a simple thing for people with mobility problems to solve for themselves.
If straws are a requirement then carry your own straws. Then you can choose the material.
I commented on another thread about McDonald’s, in France they stopped giving out straws and just printed on the cup “To drink, remove lid and lift cup, you’re not an infant”
First comment underneath it was “What about people with mobility problems”
Shut the fuck up bitch
When i was in paria they just had recycled card lids with a small hole in like a coffee lid and ypu drank from the hole. Or i guess you could remove the lid.
