I think some pissed off worker might have stuck it in while it was being bottled.(Or it might be a conspiracy ..)

Yeah sue them, drag them to the consumer forum and tell the court that you only noticed the straw once it was halfway down your throat

Hey .. Wait a second. Isn't this a cool idea? Open the bottle and a straw pops out. Re-defining 'ready-to-drink'.

If the bottle is still sealed, don't open it cos once you open it, there won't be any grounds for a complaint cos the company will say that u might have put the straw later in it.
And the court may/may not consider the audio/visual proofs given by a consumer unless given/taken by a court/govt. appointed photographer, etc..

Nope, they won't be able to. Pepse will say they (Coca Cola or others) might have sabotaged/staged it.

Sure is a good idea. But what about the quality or taste of drink that might get affected by a plastic (or any other material) straw?

u can take them to court and stuff, but u'll end up wasting a lot of time and money without any outcome. i advise u to keep it in ur fridge and show it to visitors to amuse them

also, u can shoot off a letter to the company threatening about taking them to court etc. they might apologise and make up by giving u lifetime supply of unlimited drinks. wow!
