Recent research indicates that the common styrofoam cup Instant Add hot water soup design is extremely dangerous to children.Burn Doctors report that instant soup packaged in styrofoam cups such as Nissan Cup O Noodles may pose serious burn risks to children who frequently tip over the cups while trying to eat the noodles.

The research study published by a group of doctors at the Shriners Burn Hospitals for Children Northern California, University of California, Davis outlines the risks. The study measured the height and base size of the cup concluding that the height of the cup made it more likely tip over. The study concluded: Simple redesigning of instant soup packaging with a wider base and shorter height, along with the requirement for warnings about the risks of burns would reduce the frequency of soup burns.In other words the Soup makers have known or should have known for years about these risks but haven’t done anything.
