Nissin and HyperX Introduce Limited Edition Cup Noodle Headphones
You can’t microwave these bad boys.
Nissin is best known for its Cup Noodles, but the company occasionally cooks up unique items like the Slurp-Cancelling Fork. Now, the Japanese brand has found a new purpose for its hugely-popular pantry staple: a limited edition pair of Cup Noodle headphones.
In partnership with HyperX, a high-performance product developer, the collaborative headgear has been dubbed the HyperX Cup MIX-In. The headphones feature two classic Nissin noodle cups in the place of the generic headphone pads, making for over-the-top, oversized ear cups. Instead of a microphone, the headphones sport a ‘Microphork’, perhaps for easier eating accessibility. “Through the use of a detachable Microphork™, the press release notes, “the headphones cancel out all Cup Noodle slurping sounds while still delivering crystal-clear sound quality… the patent-pending Noodlette™ ear pads woven together with noodle fibers deliver the silky soft caress of ramen noodles for your ears…”
According to Nissin, the HyperX Cup MIX-Ins will release on April 1, 6 AM EST, better known as April Fool’s Day. No details yet on pricing, but stay tuned to the Nissin Fan online store.
