Nissin Foods USA has expanded its product range with the introduction of new microwavable Cup Noodles.
The company has used microwave-friendly packaging in place of a foam cup which will allow consumers to microwave cup noodles in just 2½ minutes, while reducing overall carbon emissions by 20%.
The new Nissin Cup Noodles will also feature less overall exterior packaging material, the company claims.
It will initially be available in Chicken, Beef, and Hearty Chicken flavors at select Walmart stores across the US, with plans to roll out to other retailers throughout the year.
Nissin Foods USA Corporate Communications vice president Linda Chung said: "As people increasingly look for ways to create their own healthier meal options, Nissin has launched the new Cup Noodles to help meet their customizable demands.
"By changing our packaging, we've made enjoying the same noodles our consumers love even easier by putting it in a new and improved cup that is now microwavable, customizable, and more sustainable."
