"Three Notices" for instant noodles in bowls:

1. Instant noodles bowls should not be heated in microwave ovens.

the material of the flour barrel contains polystyrene, and if the temperature is too high, it will release chemicals. Professor Jing Yubi from the Organic Synthesis Laboratory of the School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering of Yang Da University said that the instant noodle barrel mainly contains polystyrene and polyethylene.

2. Do not hold acidic substances such as orange juice and vinegar in the instant noodle bowl.

When polystyrene meets strong acid and alkali, it will decompose substances containing benzene, which can cause cancer and be harmful to human body.

3. After eating instant noodles, don't drink hot water in an instant noodle bowl.

if it is used for many times, the specific chemical structure of the material contained in the noodle bowl will be destroyed, which will release toxic substances. The bowl of instant noodles is disposable, and the water temperature of instant noodles should be as low as 1℃.
