I Illegally Purchased a Pack of 20 Plastic Straws From China
Because it is both illegal, and you are unable to, buy plastic straws ANYWHERE in Canada.

Happens in your country?

Here they banned plastic straws 2-3 years ago but I think most coffee shops (it's all that exists here other than gyro shops) have them and you can still buy packs of 150 of them easily from the street, the mentality of people here is completely thirdie

No. I bought a 500 pack at Dollarstore a few weeks ago.

I understand being able to buy plastic straws in Greece, but you can do it in SWEDEN? I'd expect your government to have banned them from being sold in stores, rather than just single-use from restaurants.

You'd be surprised how little Sweden gives a shit about the environment.
If it's not some huge government "this makes me look good" epic international news worthy stuff, it's not even worth looking at.
Fuck, out gubmint removed all and any reason to buy EV's.

Every grocery store sells picrel. Anyone who's ever drank from a straw at a party, birthday or celebration has drank from these.
I just go to Dollarstore because they cost less than half there.

I bought a pack of 5 glass straws for 2โ‚ฌ. They're very convenient, look quite nice, and they're reusable.
