    Work just as well as plastic straws
    These work just as good as plastic straws, except when you throw them out they break down naturally and don’t take 450 years to decompose.

Are biodegradable straws really biodegradable?
Yes, ours are the real deal. These grass straws are 100% natural plant stems, with no coatings or hidden plastics. They break down naturally in compost or soil, just like any other garden clippings. No greenwashing here.
How long does it take for biodegradable straws to decompose?
In a home compost bin, they usually break down within a few weeks based on the activity level of your compost, temperature and moisture. In the garden, they act like mulch and will slowly return to the earth, just like grass clippings.
Can I eat a biodegradable straw?
We wouldn’t recommend making a meal out of it but they’re not harmful (just not designed to be food!). Think of it like chewing on a wheat stem or bamboo skewer: harmless in small contact, but not tasty or nutritious.
