Definitely depends upon the drink. Water at a restaurant = always. Beer = not gonna happen...ever

Depends on the drink. A few years ago 7/11 ran a promo where they offered thick, colored aluminum straws for their Slurpees. I grabbed one and noticed that it felt very cold and seemed to keep the slush cold longer. I kept it in my desk. I use it now for milkshakes and it's great.

I only use a straw when I think the glass might be dirty. Or a rare, rare milkshake.

Paper straws. A great dream, a disappointing reality.

Rarely. I just don't like it for some reason. In a weirdly related story, I had a friend from Georgia whose dad saw him drinking out of a straw when he was like 5 or 6. His dad threw the straw out and said "boy, I don't suck no dicks so I don't drink out of no straws". My friend never used a straw again.

If you swallow too much air, drinking through a straw helps.

Drank Heineken's out of a straw in NY, before my flight to Saudi Arabia.
Caught hell from the locals. I always use a straw with beer when not in public. |
