ABSTRACT:
A drinking straw, designed to demonstrate the need for teamwork, which includes a hollow chamber to which is connected, at its lower end, a tubular inlet member which extends downwardly so as to form a passage for flow of liquid from a reservoir into the hollow chamber. At or proximate the upper part of the hollow chamber are connected a plurality of tubular outlet mouthpiece members, normally two for a basic "love straw" configuration, which extend outwardly therefrom so as to form passages for the flow of liquid from the hollow chamber. The hollow chamber has an internal volume of at least five cubic centimeters, a preferred volume of approximately twenty cubic centimeters, and is formed in the shape of a heart. The hollow chamber may be formed to be separable into two or more sections to facilitate cleaning of the interior of the chamber. The tubular inlet member and the tubular outlet mouthpiece members may be separable from the hollow chamber. In addition, the hollow chamber, tubular inlet member and tubular outlet mouthpiece members may be made of a transparent material.
