Do you think Carnival will bring back straws ?

[florida eagle]

Before the pandemic, I read on a forum that Carnival also eliminated butter patties. For the reason there may have been a plastic piece between them. I do not remember if they did. On the forum. at the time they said butter was put in a big piece on a bowl and each person took a knife to cut a piece off. There were toast crumbs all over the butter in the bowl. So then there was a thread saying they put butter in a squeeze bottle. If this is true I do not know. However we are in a newer era of sanitized ways.

Plastic ones are gone.  Metal ones can be purchased and they have sugar ones flavored with lime that can be used for margaritas and daiquiris.

The butter pats were individually wrapped in foil.  Carnival had also gotten rid of sugar packets and replaced with sugar in pour bottles that were clogged due to the humidity.

Correct and this is because no matter how careful they are in the galley some of this stuff makes it into the ocean which is a big issue for Carnival Corp and even the smallest infraction in environmental rules can result in huge penalties from the court.
