ABSTRACT:
A novelty drinking straw which includes a planar insert for the display of amusement or advertising indicia thereon. The straw includes a drinking tube having linearly extending first and second ends, and a loop disposed therebetween. The loop passes through more than 360.degree. of arc for a distance to define a doubled portion of the loop including an inner and an outer passage. The outer passage terminates in a transverse attachment portion. A planar insert is attached to the loop by means of a first cut-out portion through which the attachment portion of the loop passes. At least one section of the insert is sandwiched between the inner and outer passages so that the insert is prevented from rotating substantially out of the plane of the loop.
