A lot of people, myself included have washed and reused plastic cutlery. Little plastic straws, I'm not so sure of, they're hard to wash properly without cracking or bending them out of shape, so I personally would throw away a plastic straw and then get a new one. They're not in short supply and you can usually pick up one at a convenience store where the fountain drinks are free of charge, the proprietor there won't care unless he's a prick. A whole box of straws at the store of course are not for free.
Is it normal to clean out used plastic straws and reuse them?
