    What is this ‘home composter’ you speak of? Like a bin with soil and worms?

      Probably something like this:

      The reviews I’ve seen on YouTube show it breaking down biodegradable plastic. So I guess it makes a difference which electric composter you buy.

      If your city has curbside composting, I bet the straws would do just fine. And I’m sure they degrade better than petroleum plastics in the landfill. “Don’t make perfect the enemy of good.”

        Wow I had no idea such a thing existed. We do have city compost pickup but I’ve been wanting to make a worm compost bin just haven’t looked into it
