The worst thing about paper straws is seeing it poked through a plastic lid.

Cool thing is that here in Copenhagen a lot of privately owned places now also use cardboard lids. As someone who delivers food for a living, I'm also happy about the change because cardboard lids have far more fiction and don't pop off as easily when transporting.

Noticed the same thing, how can one be concerned about the plastic straws but not the cups? I almost thought that was the joke.
