I do admit to buying like 8 or more different styles of the paper straws mostly to use for decoration.
They seem to have a style for every occasion.

Learned to dislike drinking out of paper straws at Teds Montana grill.
The paper straws there don't even have a coating like some paper straws do.

Ted Turner must feel much better about himself by saving the planet by using paper straws in his restaurants.
As he sits in one of his nineteen ranches, nineteen ranches for one man!
Now that's conservation thank you for holding back and not buying thirty Ted.

I do like their burgers though.

It's the hypocrisy that gets me the most, more than the whole green issue really.

What do you think the carbon footprint of say Ted Turner or Al Gore is, if we all lived like them this plant would be in way bigger trouble.

"How many ranches does Mr. Turner own?
Mr. Turner owns nineteen ranches – sixteen in the western U.S. and three in Argentina. Mr. Turner’s western U.S. ranches are located in six states (CO, KS, MT, NE, NM, SD)"

"The gores bills average out to be $29,268 in gas and electric bills for the Gores in 2006, and $31,512 in 2005."
