It is pretty much false advertising as there is nothing "Jumbo" about them. I bought them to replace the paper straws my rep had us buy but the diameter of these is actually smaller than the ones we had. And those were simply advertised as standard. I knew they weren't going to be too big as they mention bigger ones for the frozen drinks but they are tiny. I'm glad I started with a couple of boxes to try and didn't get myself stuck with the 12000 count case.
Thank you for your review, Kevin! Please note that jumbo and super jumbo straws typically have a diameter of 1/4" or 6 mm. Further information on the sizes of each straw type can be found in the Questions & Answers section of the item page. For an alternative that might better suit your needs, try this Choice 7 3/4" Giant Black Wrapped Straw - 300/Box instead! It is the next size up, with an 8mm diameter. We also list the diameter in the "Specs" section of the product page to help you find a size that works for you.
