Hear me out. Dandelion Straws
Instead of plastic straws every restaurant could have dandelions growing outside and every customer picks their own dandelion and uses it as a straw.
I know this works because the other day I was eating a dandelion from my lawn and I realized that the stem was hollow AND it’s edible. So obviously my first instinct was to stick it in a drink and test it out. And it actually worked perfectly as a straw! Also the straw is a plant so it wont get soggy in liquid like stupid paper straws. And when you’re done with the straw you can just throw it anywhere outside because it’ll decompose or you could eat it if you want.
The stem does have a slightly bitter lettuce-like taste after the first sip but then it just functions normally.
Anyways let me know what you think of my idea!
