I’m sure all of you know that there are different types of straw-some creations. There are the common man-made ones -- you know, those plastic ones we sip those refreshing drinks from -- and then there are those long-practiced traditional straw innovations from natural resources.
Although plastic is fast becoming a taboo material, these straw-some creations focus on utilizing what has already been produced, therefore creating eco-friendly products. Similarly, by producing more natural straw products, it also encourages a more natural way of living.
