    Those stsrbucks cups are fairly thick, like more than the amount of plastic in a straw thick. Is that really better overall?

      Did you read what I said? I said I hate using Starbucks as an example. It just happened to be the first thing that came to mind, that everyone would know what I was talking about. Yes, Starbucks sucks, and so do their plastic products, BUT as I said, that STYLE is what I was talking about. In fact, I said something more like the top of a soda can would be good.

          Not really. Everyone seems to forget we used to make things out of shit other than plastic for some reason.
