Michael When invited to a party in America, you are almost certain to drink from red plastic cups. These very sturdy "Red Plastic Cups" are part of the standard repertoire of any celebration. Drinks don't taste as bad from them as they do from white plastic cups, but of course, no educated European would subject their guests to such proletarian vessels.
The fact that the plastic cups are not exactly environmentally friendly is taken on by the redneck singer Toby Keith in the video 'Red Solo Cup' by the line "cheap and disposable, in 14 years they are decomposable". And even young, trendy adults are singing about the drinking cups, such as the Student rapper "No-ID" in the video "Red Plastic Cup. In our home, of course, only glass glasses are placed on the table, after all, we come from the old world and never tire of emphasizing this.
Greetings from the New World!
