Do you like to drink through straws or straight from the can?

I like to drink through straws when I have a coke or pepsi. I just started doing it recently, and I find that I don't drink as much when I do that! I have cut my pop/soda intake in half!

I prefer to drink through a straw especially when I am outside as I worry alot about bugs getting in my drink and if I drink through a straw they usually dont make it to my mouth, they just block the straw LOL

Wow, that's interesting! I like using a straw too. It seems less messy to me than drinking out of the can. Whenever I drink from the can, I end up dripping on myself at least once, lol. Maybe I'm just a slob though. hehe

I don't like drinking from cans, I prefer drinking from bottles or out of a glass, but I do like a straw now and again, but I always end up having a very smushy soggy straw at the end because I chew them up.

I prefer pouring it into a glass of ice. However, I prefer straws with iced tea. Tea tend to stain your teeth like coffee.

I don't drink from straws unless they are from the fountain machines. Though I don't drink from the can either, I can't stand for my lips to touch the can most of the time. So I pour it in a cup with ice.

Straw... but then if I an drinking from a glass I dont like the straw. LOL while your in a club and your getting drunker, it is easier to find the edge of the glass than the damn straw./... LMAO

That is VERY true, and I have been in that predicament. I prefer a glass to straw myself... But when it comes to cans, I am a recent straw addict!

I drink from both. If I am at a place other than at my house (where I know all the glasses and cans are clean becasue I wash them-- yes, I even wash the top of my cans) I will drink from a straw. At home I drink straight from the glass/can.

I don't like drinking from a can, I don't think it's very clean, I either use a straw or pour it out.

I usually just drink it straight from the can, unless I'm sick I'll use a straw.

I drink straight from the can, maybe if I drank with a straw it would slow down how much soda I drink lol
