People bitch and moan about straws. But this thought occurred to me recently, why don’t they offer reusable ones instead and just wash it with other tableware?

The places that use straws are the same places that don’t offer cutlery or even plates.
Actual restaurants that have plates and cutlery also have glasses that don’t require a straw.
The only reason a straw is necessary in a restaurant in the first place is because customers don’t want to drink from a disposable cardboard cup.
I have seen some fastfood restaurants offering plastic cups instead. They can wash those easily.
Drive through is a different thing altogether, and you’re probably better off with a can or bottle in that case.
The idea to serve beverages in a cardboard cup so uncomfortable that you need a straw and then need a plastic cover to keep the beverage in the cup is fucking stupid considering that they could just serve a bottled beverage instead.
Well… a lot of female patrons want a straw so they don’t mess up their lipstick, even at fancier places.
