    Ha ha in France they just stopped giving you straws. The paper cup for the drinks just said on it something like "To drink, remove lid and lift cup. You’re not an infant " lol

    Now they have those reusable cups and fry holders, which are suspiciously smaller than the paper ones

    Only thing I noticed that was single use plastic was the little tub of sauce

      Yeah only thing is those cups are like that because people have cup holders in their car or walking with open hot drinks. So calling them an infant just cuz they don’t want to sue their company burns is a bit short sighted. Weirdly bad marketing that they should overlook that as one of the most common demographic getting a packed breakfast in the morning

        A) It’s for cold drinks

        B) If you drink coffee with a straw you should be sent to an island somewhere with the people who drive tiny-penis trucks

        It’s almost as if those people would know to take a straw everywhere, seeing as they’ve lived with the condition

        You’re not helping progress with constantly saying “what about…?”

          do they though. I don’t think I have seen them carry their own. After all if every place as a straw then you dont need your own. But that is an easy fix for them.

      That little tub of sauce could be made of waxy paper entirely, albeit probably at the cost of a lower shelf life.
