It's called electrostatic induction, guys. Duh. Nothing to do with dental work, nothing to do with contents of cup or taste. Styrofoam carries electrical currents. And shame on those who posted things on this long chain that have NOTHING to do with

Styrofoam.

Don't know what to tell you....when I drink out of a styrofoam cup I have a tooth that hurts. It's the strangest thing ever...

completely insane -- but: I can't drink coffee out of styrofoam cups,
because (i believe) I have so much dental work, theres some wierd thing
that happens in my mouth, almost like an electrical charge or a chemical reaction...it tastes gross. I can't drink *anything* out of styrofoam
cups, actually, but coffee is what I drink most out of cups.

Anybody else hate styrofoam cups?

I thought it was just me and i actually thought it was the water, but now that i think about it, all the times I've had this awful sensation it was from a Styrofoam cup!! I would ask family members or friends and nope, I was the only one experiencing
this.
