goodbye/fun facts....Drinking Straw Day is celebrated on January 3 every year because on Jan. 3rd 1888 Marvin Chester Stone was awarded a patent for his innovation, i.e., the paper drinking straw. bendable straws were invented by Joseph Friedman. Friedman used to watch his daughter struggle to drink her milkshake using the paper straw, so he came up with the bendable straw, in 1937. Then in the 1960's With the rise of the fast-food industry, the paper drinking straw is replaced by the low-cost plastic straw. Then in the mid 2000's...plastic straws were named as a main source of plastic pollution...several states banned them all together and now offer things like reusable straws, pasta, or bamboo.
