Nissin Foods, the company behind Cup Noodles, announced Thursday it is introducing a new paper cup design in early 2024, replacing the current polystyrene cup, that'll make the cups microwavable for the first time.

The microwavable noodles no longer require boiling water to cook and can be heated in 2 minutes and 15 seconds, the company says.

Microwaving polystyrene − which is found in Styrofoam − may not be safe because of the presence of styrene. The compound has been linked to cancer and substances may emit from the food containers at high temperatures when microwaved. However, some polystyrene containers are safe to microwave if they have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration, which tests the safety of microwavable containers.

According to the company's website, Nissin put down roots in the U.S. after their founder, Momofuku Ando, took a trip here in 1966 and observed Americans eating forkfuls of noodles out of cups instead of using bowls and chopsticks.

Nissin began selling Top Ramen in 1972, making it the first ramen manufactured and sold in the U.S.
