Anarchy in straw country
May 9, 2007McDonalds has stopped using white straws, I think. They have defied logical american psychology and switched colors. I bet they didn't think anyone would notice. Well I did.
I was shocked when I unwrapped my straw today. I didn't know what to think. I almost didn't drink my drink. I'm so used to my white straws from McDonalds.
And for the sake of arguments, McDonalds has the best straws in the land. You gan get so much drink so quickly. Nothing can compete. And their straws really help when you have a milkshake. I know I don't like "suckface."
Back to the subject at hand.
Why would they go to green? What does lime green have to do with McDonalds? I know its not an Earth awareness event. I don't know of any benefits that use a green ribbon, like say breast cancer.
I hope there's no such thing as straw cancer.
I wish I could get to the bottom of this. Did they lose money with white straws. I asked someone at the paper this very question earlier and they suggested that some idiot poked their eye out with a white straw because they couldn't see it.
I don't buy it. Bring back the white straws. And no, I'm not racist. I love straws of all colors, I just don't want a green straw at McDonalds.

They changed the colors in honor of Sherek 3. Since they are doing the happy meals and all the promos for the movie. They will be white after the movie is out for a while I am sure.
