Of course Treehuggers [read: eco-conscious consumers] should make their own soups from scratch and keep them in reuseable containers. But if you are going to buy a bowl of instant noodles, look at these- palm oil free, all-natural and vegetarian soups, but what we really like is that the bowl is completely biodegradable and “decomposes in the soil with no harm to the earth”. Most will find their way into landfills where they probably are no better than plastic, but it is a start, particularly if you live in an area with community composting. Tasty, too… (the soup, not the bowl).
