Indonesia's KFC fast food restaurant has encouraged its customers to use special straws made from stainless steel.
“Let's take care of the environment by buying SJW straws from KFC! Get a set of straws complete with cleaning products! ", - invites the official Twitter of the company.
Plastic waste poses the greatest threat to the environment. The few who know it are trying to change their lifestyle with stainless steel cloth bags and drinking straws.
KFC has just released a Social Justice Warior (SJW) straw, either stainless steel or non-disposable.
The proposed posters depict SJW straws as red and green lightsabers from the Star Wars movie.
While metal straws are environmentally friendly and a great substitute for disposable plastic straws that can be reused, people need to be extra careful and safe in handling and storing them.
If a child, elderly or disabled person uses a metal straw, it is advisable that they are always supervised.
Recall that in November 2018, a woman died in the UK after falling face down on a stainless straw. According to media reports, at the time of the fall, she was holding a drinking glass with a metal straw in her hand. Struthers-Gardner fell facedown on a 10-inch long stainless steel straw. A metal straw penetrated the left eye and pierced the woman's brain.
