Customer Review: Polycarbonate straws.
Summary: 5 Stars
These are great. Use all the time, easy to wash and never squashed or broken. Works for me...Customer Review: plastic reusable straws
Summary: 4 Stars
I wanted washable,reusable,long straws to avoid wasting so many. These fit the bill perfectly, however they are made in China, so I'm wondering what may have been added to them. Also, not sure how safe they are over a period of time. I also purchsed the stainless steel long straws, but find them too "industrial", probably will never use them.Customer Review: Zak Designs Reusable Straws

I love to drink beverages through a straw, but was feeling guilty about all that disposable plastic. Now I have reusable straws with a fun retro design that are easy to clean.Customer Review: Response to bpa question

(Have not purchased straws yet)
The following information was taken from [...]
"Researchers from government agencies, academia, and industry worldwide have studied the potential for bisphenol A (BPA) to migrate from polycarbonate products into foods and beverages. These studies consistently show that the potential migration of BPA into food is extremely low, generally less than 5 parts per billion under conditions typical for uses of polycarbonate products. At this level, a consumer would have to ingest more than 1,300 pounds of food and beverages in contact with polycarbonate every day for an entire lifetime to exceed the safe level of BPA set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Consequently, human exposure to BPA from polycarbonate plastics is minimal and poses no known health risk.
The use of polycarbonate plastic for food contact applications continues to be recognized as safe by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the European Commission Scientific Committee on Food, the United Kingdom Food Standards Agency, the Japan Ministry for Health and Welfare and other regulatory authorities worldwide."

Love the design and the idea you can wash and reuse. My only concern is that it does not work on frozen drinks. I made a slushy with lemonade and you could not sip through this straw. These straws should have been made wider! I had to resort back to the plastic straws I had on hand and had not problem.
