There is a learning curve with metal straws, if you only used plastic / paper. I hit my teeth so often with the metal one when I first got it.
Ours have little silicone bits on the end to use as a mouthpiece to prevent that. We also have some silicone straws which work fine.
Silicone is a type of plastic (kind of)
One piece of silicon that will last thousands of uses vs entire straw of single use plastic each time.
Yeah, you're definitely correct that it's better than single use plastics, but silicone has the potential to leach into liquids.
And to be clear, single use plastic straws have more of a risk of leaching than silicone. Stainless steel does not have this risk.
Yeah, silicone is in a weird spot where it's kinda a plastic and kinda rubber.
But that's less important because they aren't single use. You're going to use them time and again.
Same reason I never felt bad about buying the "single use" plastic grocery bags from Aldi that they've discontinued - I still have ones from my first visit to an Aldi that I continue to reuse.
Sounds like Germ City to me tbh. Straws are bad enough already without nooks and crannies
Idk about theirs, but my silicone bits are removable. You take them off before you wash them.
