Metal straws are kind of dangerous though right?

How would they be dangerous?

[–] somename@hexbear.net 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Some people have been injured or killed by falling on them, because it’s a rigid metal pole kept upright and by your head.

Not that like there’s a massive number of these cases, but it could rise if everyone uses them.

Idk. Just seems like going strawless is better.

Hmm. I don't know, I still like the metal straws. I always use them.

You can also get injured from a glass bottle, or even a glass straw, so it just takes caution. I normally do strawless now unless they offer metal straws, so I could do that but sometimes you do need a straw.
