There are three points available in the performance category.

Round ONe:
Hot Drink
Glass straw comes out of the corner strong. It does NOT burn your lips. It’s so wide there is no way stainless steel straw can keep up, the drink is gone in no time!
Oh, but here comes stainless steel straw, it will not give up! This round is really heating up. Oh wait, that is just stainless steel straw drinking the hot liquid. OUCH! That’s gotta hurt the lips!
DING DING!
Round 1 goes to glass straw for not scalding any lips.
Round 2
COld Drink
Stainless steel straw comes out swinging! But with a bit of metallic aftertaste, and freezing cold lips, glass straw strikes back!
Glass straw has no aftertaste and the wide bore of the straw make it quite enjoyable to drink cold liquids. It remains a comfortable temperature even while drinking the cold liquid.
DING DING!
This round wasn’t even close, folks.
Round 2 goes to glass straw.
Round 3
Smoothie Drink
Both contestants are coming out strong in this round.
Stainless steel straw is NOT giving up! With its sleek look and smooth surface, it sucks up that smoothie like there is no tomorrow!
Not to be outdone, glass straw looks like it was made for smoothie drinking. Its wide bore makes even thick smoothies feel like water. Watching the smoothie work its way up the straw is magical folks!
DING DING!
Is glass straw going to sweep these first three rounds?
Wait, wait! Round 3 is a draw. The judges cannot determine a winner on this one. Both straws functioned very well on this smoothie task.
We have got ourselves a real nail-biter here tonight folks. Can stainless steel claw its way back, I just don’t know.
Round 4
Maintenance
Glass straw wants to put the final nail in the coffin in this round! Easy to clean with a cleaning brush, you can actually see if it is dirty or not.
Oh, but stainless steel straw will not have it. It scrubs just as clean with a cleaning brush. It’s so easy, folks, anyone can do it!
DING DING!
Oh my goodness! We have another draw folks. Stainless steel and glass straw are equally easy to clean.
The final round is here. The winner of this round will win the match!
Round 5
Durability
Stainless steel has a second wind. It has clawed and fought its way back into this match and is not going down without a fight.
Glass is not going to give up easily. Made with borosilicate, it is very durable. But is it any match for stainless steel?
NO!
Stainless steel for the comeback! It’s so strong and with no risk of breakage, it edges out glass in this round!
Stainless Steel wins the final round!
That was a real nail-biter of a match, folks!
