Glass Straws

I'm a straw person, especially when dining out. I just don't like the feel of my lips touching the rim of a glass, and in the case of restaurants, they don't always clean the rims well enough, especially when they have been used by someone who was wearing lipstick when she used the glass. Into this void comes the concept of glass straws.

I didn't even know that such a thing existed! I tend to shy away from all things plastic when eating or drinking, but it goes without saying that one really doesn't have much of a choice when it comes down to the area of straws. Imagine my surprise when I came across the Glass Dharma Bent Handmade Glass Drinking Straws.

These straws are beautiful in their design and made of sturdy glass. They are easy to clean, and water and/or beverages just taste ultra clean when you use them. I especially like to use them when I drink my infused waters.

They come in a variety of sizes: wide (for smoothies), thin (for hot/cold beverages), and thinner (for juices). There's a diameter for every preference and every viscosity. They also come in a variety of lengths.

These straws show a wonderful commitment to the green movement as they are reusable for as long as you take care of them.

If you're a straw person too, I suggest that you check these out. I think that you will be impressed. In addition to the many that I have purchased for myself, I'll be buying more of these to give as gifts.
