Forget plastic, pizzeria offers pasta straws

Monday, July 16, 2018
More and more companies have, or are considering, banning plastic straws to reduce plastic waste.

A pizzeria in Wisconsin already has an interesting alternative.

Frank's Pizza Palace in Appleton has been offering uncooked pasta straws for the past 30 years.

Owner Jeannie Pierri-Brice says the long ziti is ordered from Bari, Italy.

Pierri-Brice says many children end up eating the straws before their pizza arrives.
