    They have a serious straw fetish in Brazil, too. I never understood why they insisted upon using them all the time, and why the soda guy always made a big show of wiping off my can when I demanded it delivered sans straw, until someone explained to me that warehouses are not the most sanitary of places. Apparently, they are rather rat and insect-infested and cans end up with all kinds of grossness on them. I started using a straw after that, depite the fact that I am the least germ-phobic person I know. Use the straw, zaf! Use it!

    If people in other countries really wanted Americans to use their straws, they would have bendy straws, twisty straws, and colorful straws.
    As Patrick Henry once said, “Give me a bendy straw or give me death.”
