Abstract

Embodiments of a reusable straw caddy include a hand-held container and dispenser for a plurality of cleaned straight reusable drinking straws. The caddy provides top and bottom portions interlocked once the bottom portion has been filled with cleaned straws. Embodiments provide top portion windows or a translucent top portion giving the user a quick count on how many cleaned straws remain in the caddy as cleaned straws are dispensed. Embodiments of the reusable straw caddy can be manufactured by three-dimensional printing or injection molding.
