Until the early 1960s, paper straws ruled the market. But plastic straws, offering a more durable drinking experience, were hot on their heels.
“The paper straw had a slow death throughout the 1960s and into the 1970s,” says David Rhodes, manager of Aardvark Paper Drinking Straws, a paper-straw manufacturer that traces its roots to Stone’s original product. “By the mid-seventies, [they] were all gone.”
