The present invention relates to a straw (1), a straw assembly (2) and a cup assembly (3). The straw (1) comprises first holes (13) in an upper half and second holes (14) in a lower half both arranged at the lateral surface of the straw (1). A sleeve element (20) can be arranged coaxially to and around the straw (1) to form a straw assembly (2). The sleeve element (20) is configured to close the first holes (13) in a first position and the second holes (14) in a second position. The straw assembly (2) can be arranged in a cup assembly (3). As the sleeve element (20) is also configured to float in a liquid the sleeve element (20) is moved through the force of buoyancy either to the first or the second position depending on the inclination of the cup assembly (3) with respect to the force of gravity. This provides a solution for any angle drinking.

The unique popcorn/snack receptacle includes at least a body of circular cross-section having a height, an open top of a first diameter, and a closed bottom of a second diameter, smaller than the first diameter. One or more indentions, depressions or extensions may be formed into the body, added to the body or to the closed bottom, adapted to enhance gripping the receptacle by a user's hand, or adapted to engage the receptacle with a cup holder or an arm of a seat. The receptacle may also provide one or more indentions, depressions or extensions comprising two or more holes or circular depressions into the body of the receptacle proximally positioned to engage a thumb and at least one finger of one hand of the user, enhancing the user's grip in the receptacle.
