Q&A

Are the wheat straws shipped with any bullsh!t plastic packaging?

How long before wheat straws get soggy?

Never soggy. Wheat straws get stronger when wet...after a few sips, they become bendy, like a plastic straw.

Can I chuck used wheat straws into a compost?

Are wheat straws gluten-free?

Yes
WTF...doesn't gluten come from wheat?
Gluten is only found in the head of the wheat plant (the stem doesn't have any gluten).
An independent lab tests our straws to make sure they are safe (below 5 ppm).

Where is the wheat grown?

Northern China
Why not home-grown American wheat?
Because American farmers don't burn their leftover wheat stems (in China & India, many farmers do).
Massive crop-fires (from burning wheat and rice fields) release CO2 and create a real 💩-show of air pollution in cities like Beijing and Delhi.

Are your wheat straws genetically modified (GMO)?

Do wheat straws work in thick drinks (like smoothies, milkshakes, boba tea)?

No, wheat straws are too narrow for thick drinks.
Why don't you make a wider straw, for milkshakes?
Reminder, we don't "make" wheat straws - there's no factory - they grow naturally on a plant.
