A drinking straw found in the back seat of a car was tested for heroin and got a positive reaction.

No - nothing that could be found on a drinking straw besides heroin.
There are false positives that involve synthetic opiates, but there is nothing that can be consumed with a straw that would give one.

I am not sure what a drinking straw has to do with a test, but there are several things that can cause a false positive for drugs.
Besides prescription drugs, there are organic substances that show the same compounds as heroin.
That is why when you are taking a drug test for work you have to show everything you are taking and other information.
If you think someone caused another to fail a test, then the logical thing is they used an actual drug rather than something to cause a false positive.

THE STRAW DID IT.
WHOM EVER WAS USING THE STRAW LEFT A SALIVA TEST THAT TESTED POSITIVE.
OTHERS ITEMS. POPPY SEEDS FROM THE HAMBURGER BUNS. POPPY SEEDS USED IN COOKING FOODS WILL GIVE A FALSE READING ALSO.

Poppy seeds are the only thing I am aware of. thats why if you are on probation or otherwise subject to drug tests, you are ordered not to consume them.

If it was lab tested it could have been a mix up.

Consuming large amounts of poppy seeds will do it........... straw will not.
