Details

The search for a truly earth-friendly straw is over with HAY! Straws 8" giant natural wheat compostable drinking straws. A byproduct of wheat production, HAY! Straws are made from natural wheat stems. When wheat grain is harvested, stems are cut and turned into things like hay - or, in this case, 100% natural straws! Add a fun, eco-friendly alternative to your bar, restaurant, catered event, or food truck with HAY! Straws.

HAY! Straws are a superior alternative to both plastic and paper straws. With plastic-free packaging, they reduce the number of harmful plastics that pollute the environment and negatively impact ecosystems around the world. Designed by nature to withstand the elements, HAY! Straws can be used in hot drinks, unlike most other plastic straw alternatives. And unlike paper straws, they do not get soggy, come from a renewable source, and require minimal processing. Since HAY! Straws are purely wheat, they're also 100% compostable.

The extra-wide diameter of these straws makes them perfect for thicker drinks like smoothies, crushed ice drinks, or cocktails like bloody marys. They are simply the best milkshake straws! These natural straws add visual appeal when served with your signature cocktails and drinks with their unique appearance and slightly golden color. No two straws are exactly alike, thanks to naturally-occurring variance among plants. Each straw is soaked and rinsed 3 times with sterilized water to ensure hygienic use, air-dried, and inspected for quality. HAY! Straws are also hand-packed into cardboard boxes for completely plastic-free packaging. Straws are not intended to be eaten or digested and should only be used as a straw to drink various liquids.

Customer questions about this product

What is the difference between these types of straws?

Straws are available in a variety of diameters based on their intended purpose and function. Sip straws are approximately 1/8" in diameter and used for cocktails and sipping on hot drinks. Jumbo straws are often the standard size for various beverages and measure around 1/4”. Super jumbo straws are also around 1/4” in diameter and some even feature built-in spoons for thick drinks. Milkshakes and smoothies are great for drinking out of giant straws thanks to their 5/16" diameters, and colossal straws at approximately 1/2" in diameter are perfect for frozen concoctions.

Why are my HAY! Straws different diameters?

Due to naturally-occurring variations in wheat stems, the exact diameters of HAY! Straws will vary.

AVOID! These are extremely fragile and very narrow. We basically tossed the entire box we purchased.

We use these for our milkshakes and they are the only non plastic straw that can hold up to thicker stuff! love them so much. I wish them came wrapped but, the display box they come in fits on the counter well and holds them in an easy to grab manner. Our customers definitely prefer these over regular paper straws.

I was really excited for theses straws BUT were extremely disappointed in them. They break so fast - within using them for an hour many of our guest were not happy with them. Its unfortunate that we are going back to regular plastic straws instead of these! SAVE YOUR MONEY and headaches from customers complaining about them!

These are awesome. We and our customers are trying to move away from so much plastic packaging and we've gotten so many compliments on these. No taste at all, they don'd dissolve like paper, and they look nice. They don't sink because they're very light but that's not really an issue for us. Definitely great for drinking/cocktail garnish but if you are a straw-biter it will break. We love them.

These straws are a bar game changer! Paper straws dissolve too quickly and these withstand the length of the drink and beyond. Will continue to use these as a plastic straw alternative!

Expensive, Yes. Want to wow people? Buy this product. With all the rave out there about paper straws it only makes sense to try something different and show your customer you care. Paper is terrible in our opinion, try these out if you can afford it.
