Mindful Nature Wheat Straws - 100 All-Natural Drinking Straws

I bought these to try a craft and they actually didn't work very well for that (if you're trying to do something with soaked straw, these are a little too sturdy). BUT five stars for their intended purpose! They're stiff, a nice size and thickness for drinking regular liquids, don't leave a taste or degrade as you drink, and they're a great biodegradable alternative for when you want something disposable. The straw does split under too much pressure, so it wouldn't hold up to multiple uses, but the amount you get in the package for the price is great.

I love that these don't fall apart like a paper straw. They have a sweet, earthy feel exactly like you'd expect from a hollow plant stalk. They're a little thinner than a standard straw, more like the width of a cocktail straw, but I thought they were sturdy and fun. Perfect to garnish an eco-friendly drink. No noticeable flavor.

The very 1st straw I tried out of the box had a hole in it so I wasn't sure if I made a good choice. I have since used other straws out of the box and they are just fine. The whole is smaller than a regular straw which isn't a problem for me and works with a frozen frap. Paper or compostable straws are required where I am. I keep these at work because the paper straws I get from Starbucks always melt or taste like paper. These straws don't taste like paper or have a flavor. I would buy them again. I almost feel bad giving 4 stars because I like the product but I guess I just have it stuck in the back of my head that other straws in the box might have a hole in them, but so can any other box of straws. I think I would buy these again if the price doesn't increase.

These straws are great. It's easy to find eco-friendly straws, but not easy to find one that replicates the feel - and most importantly the lack of flavor - of a plastic straw. Paper straw disintegrate and make your drink taste like cardboard. These wheat straws work perfectly, don't fall apart, and don't change the flavor of your drink! I also appreciated that the packaging was green as well. Definitely adding to my regular Amazon order!

Awful. These are literally made of fibrous straw, are brittle, and have a very thin diameter. I’ve used plenty of other plant-based products that feel like plastic. If you like chewing on straw hats, this might be for you.
