@missoverexcited - cozies - are sleeves you put around beer bottles or beer cans in the USA to keep your hands from getting cold since we prefer our beer ICE cold. the colder the better!!
You could do them in team colours, university colours, with corporate logos on them. There is a HUGE market for these. Get yourself on Shark Tank straight away. There could be a Disney line with all your favourite characters.
I was wrong before. This is a billion dollar idea.
Cozies sounds reasonable. Coozies sounds likeā¦well Iām not going to say because if I did Iād have to ban myself.
Or just get silicone straws and not metal onesā¦
You get banned for saying ācootiesā?
I think theyād be harder to keep hygienically clean.
Yes, thisā¦
The ones I got came with a cleaner āsnakeā - no different than the kits Iāve seen with metal ones.
Yes. Youāre out.
Boil them.
Iād much prefer the metal straws to silicone, though. I hate the way silicone feels. (I have an aversion to weird textures).
Thereās no way to ask this discreetly: are your, er, straws stiff or floppy?
According to this, those are spelled koozies ā¦?
Iāll be back. Try stopping me.
Silly, silicone is distinctly floppy.
Now that may get you a ban!
Stiff-ish. They hold their shape and slight bend at the top, but they are not rigid like metal.
Then theyāre hard to clean. Itās much easier to clear, you know, rigid things. And doesnāt rubbery stuff act as a dirt magnet?
I donāt care. Iāll start my own site: www.touringplans.xxx
Silicone is very easy to clean, though. Really, all you have to do is boil them. No worse than baby bottle nipplesā¦
But take that up with @lizzieanne771, as she owns some, while I do notā¦ I own metal ones.
That seems not convenient.
