Why is alcohol always in plastic cups at parties.. and not styrofoam???
always seen it in plastic cups.. not styrofoam cups.. why is this/????
Answers:
Plastic is harder to break than styrofoam. You get sloshed at a party and your plastic cup is less likely to break when you fall and squish it. See you face down on the sidewalk this weekend! : )
plastic is just a touch classier
hat correct ive always seen it in those red plastic ones and never styrofaom that is a good question!
Probably because styrofoam can crumble and break easier than plastic. Plus, the plastic is cheap and easy to find.
styrofoam makes alcohol taste funny and makes beer more foamy
I think it depends on who's throwing the party. I think plastic is better than styrofoam because styrofoam is easier to crush/break, and also to tear into little pieces and make a mess.
Styrofoam breaks easily, and when people drink and they tend to do things without noticing, they may squeeze the cup to hard and make a mess on themselves.
the beer doesnt taste as good in a styrofoam cup kid
I think that it's because the person throwing the party has spent so much money on the alcohol that they have to cut costs on the cups. When you think about it, plastic cups cost less, and come in bigger amounts. Also, Styrofoam is not good for the environment, and when you have a party you are usually outside around a fire, correct? Well, burnt Styrofoam not only smells bad, but it's bad for you to inhale and for the environment. So, next time you're at a party and the person has plastic cups, think about how you're having fun, and not killing our planet at the same time.
it's all about the taste of the beer.. don't want sour beer now do you? keep it fresh, keep it in plastic.. that's always my motto.. works in more ways than just beer.. ha..
its cheaper to use plasic,
plastic is more durable than styrofoam..
Styrofoam is worse for the environment, and as stated by someone else, less sophisticated.
So the host's can see whats left in the guests glasses =)
u can eaily push ur finger through the stryfoam ones, and then spill the drink all over yourself. plastic hold a bit more
Styrofoam is supposed to be bad for the environment because it doesn't break down in the waste...
Now most plastic cups a recyclable=good for the environment :)
Plus they come in better sizes & colors;)
One reason is probably the fact that plastic is usually clear.
You can't see the pretty drink through the styrofoam. Styrofoam is usually used for hot drinks, too.
A strong drink will eat right through styrofoam!
Styrofoam sqeaks on your teeth! yuck!
My husband says plastic is more durable when you are drunk and crashing into walls :)
Also, those plastic Solo cups are the perfect size for a beer.
styrofoam is worse for the environment
Drunk folks like to squeeze cups. No one enjoys styrofoam bits in their drink.
The palstic cups are bigger!!
b/c styrofoam is bad for the environment. Plastic cups are cheaper anyways.
