A flexible plastic removable lid apparatus for a disposable glass or cup having a horizontally disposed circular member constructed of a semi-rigid flexible plastic material. The edges of the circular member have an annular downwardly depending flange attached thereto for extending over the edge of such glass or cup. An upper tubular connector is connected to the central top portion of the circular member and a lower short tubular connector member is connected to the bottom central portion of the circular member. These two tubular connector members are in fluid communication with each other. A first upper straw is glued in an arcuate position to the top of the circular member and this upper straw can be removed and placed on the upper connector member to produce an upper straw section. Similarly a lower straw member is glued to the bottom of the circular member and it can be removed therefrom when necessary to frictionally and sealingly fit on the lower tubular connector member to thereby produce a combination lid and straw which extends into the liquid within the cup and extends upwardly so that a person can suck the liquid out through the straw. Arrangement of the upper straw as it is glued to the top of the circular member form is in a smaller arc while the position of the straw is formed in a larger arc on the lower straw. Additionally, the upper tubular connector member is larger than the lower tubular connector member so that these combination lids and straws can be stacked one on top of the other in a compact fashion.

A flexible plastic removable lid apparatus for a glass or cup comprising: a horizontally disposed circular member constructed of a semi-rigid flexible plastic material; an annular downardly depending member attached to the outer periphery of said circular member; a vent hole disposed in said circular member; a lower tubular straw attached to a lower portion of said circular member; an upper tubular connector member integrally attached to central portion of said circular member, said upper tubular member being in fluid communication with the top of said lower tubular straw; and upper tubular straw in telescoping relationship with said upper tubular connector member for permitting said upper tubular straw to be detachable, said upper tubular straw being of a diameter to frictionally engage said upper tubular connector member to hold and seal the upper tubular straw to the upper tubular connector member; and means for detachably connecting said lower tubular straw to said circular member, said connecting means comprising a lower short tubular connector member integrally attached to the upper short tubular connector member, said lower short tubular connector member being of a diameter to frictinally and sealably engage said lower tubular straw in a telescoping relationship, said lower short tubular connector member being of a different size than the upper short tubular connector whereby one lid appartus will stock onto another lid apparatus wherein upper tubular connector on one lid apparatus will be in a compact telescoping relationship with the lower tubular connector on said another lid appparatus.
