Those little brushes they make for cleaning straws have so many other uses, I swear.

Edit: just realized you said "bottle" and not "little," sorry about that lol

Yeah, and if you're really old-school, you simply use a pipe cleaner... 🤪

Ooh smart idea, I forgot those existed for a bit there lol

That's exactly what the "straw cleaner" people wanted you to do, ya know...

They're insidiously clever. It's not your fault. Better humans than yourself have gone their whole lives assuming those fuzzy bendy things were just for preschool craft projects. 🤷🏼‍♂️
