Snazzy straws save the seas
November 7, 2017
So you love using straws and plastic straws are cheap so we don't think too much about them. They come free with fizzy bubbly guilt trip thirst quenchers and end up in a sea turtle's nostril....yes, we've all seen the horrific viral video.
Straws are how we first learnt to drink independently from a sippy cup. Sucking from mummy's nipple or a bottle transitioned into straws. I can't remember how many packs of 100 colourful plastic straws I've bought for my children's parties and just for making their smoothies and milkshakes more snazzy....but we can do better.
It's not often we find alternatives that just make sense. It was a discovery that, as with all the better alternatives, come at a higher initial price but end up saving me money and a guilty conscience. It's also such a pretty alternative that screams awesome-cool mum.
I found these stainless steel straws online at Epicstore while searching for cool gifts for my mums group friends. We all want the same things for our children; good, clean, safe products. It helps too that these straws are so snazzy. Every time I give Jacob his blueberry-banana smoothie or iced-Milo, I whip out my stainless steel straw and smile. We're both happy.
