Will the wrapper biodegrade too?
Yes! Both the rye straw and the paper wrapper are fully biodegradable and compostable.

How long do they stay fresh in a dispenser?
When stored in a dry location, wrapped straws stay fresh indefinitely. The paper wrapper protects them from humidity and contamination.

Are these the same quality as unwrapped straws?
Absolutely! Same authentic rye stems from Shaffer Farms, same performance. The only difference is the hygienic paper wrapper for self-service locations.

Can customers with gluten sensitivity use these?
