About Us

Welcome to Thurstee, where we believe saving the planet should be easy, fun, and a little bit crunchy (just like our straws!). We make 100% biodegradable, compostable drinking straws from rice—yes, actual rice! That means no plastic, no pollution, and no more marine animals mistaking alternative straws for snacks. 

Why rice? Because it’s as kind to the earth as it is to your smoothie. Each straw is designed to break down naturally, so when you’re done sipping, you can feel good knowing it won’t end up in the ocean, hurting our underwater friends.

We’re not just about selling straws; we’re about creating change. By choosing Thurstee, you’re joining a growing community of planet-protectors who believe that small choices—like what straw you sip from—can make a big impact.

Together, let’s say goodbye to plastic and hello to a cleaner, greener world, one straw at a time. Ready to make a splash with us?
