The story of Frosted Tips Straws

Frosted Tips Straws were named after the hairstyle every older brother tried at least once. The tubes were bright blue and orange, with the ends dunked in crunchy white sugar crystals. You ate the frosted end first for maximum sour, then chewed the rest while practicing your best album cover pose in the bathroom mirror.

Fun fact

Some kids rubbed the sugar crystals into their own hair for picture day, which went about as well as you would guess.
