Four identical spiral patterns arranged in a 2x2 grid. Each spiral consists of alternating red and yellow concentric rings forming a clockwise spiral. Overlaid on each spiral is the text "removable straw" in black pixelated font, with "removable" positioned above "straw". The spirals are identical in size and spacing, with no visible differences between them. The background is a solid yellow color. The image has a low-resolution, pixelated appearance typical of early digital graphics.
