paper straw
Biodegradable drinking tube
A paper straw is a drinking straw made from paper rather than plastic.
Paper straws gained popularity in the 2010s as an environmentally friendlier alternative to single-use plastic straws, though they're often criticized for becoming soggy and dissolving mid-drink: The paper straw collapsed before I finished my smoothie.
