Japanese international food company Nissin revealed a bedding set in a cup noodle-inspired look. Nissin is known for releasing innovative products outside the food industry, such as cup noodle-flavored sodas and a cup noodle-inspired footwear collection with the footwear brand Converse.
The bedding set is shown to be designed in Nissin's iconic cup noodle. The complete bedding set consists of a comforter in red and white cup noodle packaging and white mini pillows containing graphics of ingredients such as eggs, puffs, green onions, shrimp, and mystery meat. The image of the bedding set would have an individual appearing to be sleeping inside a human-size cup noodle, which would make this bedding set an ideal gift option for Nissin fans.
Nissin claims that the bedding set will be made available if there are enough retweets on its social media post.
