Two items of CO･OP original cup noodles the “Vegetables and chicken soy sauce noodles” the “Chicken and seafood plain hot water noodles” and one item of a “CO·OP soup base with 50% salt cut” have been developed and marked as a health care good with the highest standard of quality, rich in flavor with a considerable reduction in salt.

The new products have been released since September 1, 2016.

Since 2015 JCCU has been developing CO･OP products with consideration to health and marked with a "health care mark". In recent years, co-op members particularly women and the elderly having strong consciousness to health, have been seeking “low-salt” products. In response to their request JCCU has developed products by reducing the salt content while maintaining the flavor and deliciousness.

For the two items of the CO･OP original cup noodles the salt equivalent per meal is reduced to 2.3g and 2.0g respectively. For the “CO·OP soup base with 50% salt cut” the salt content has been reduced by 50% compared with the conventional type. By taking advantage of the taste of bonito flavor and fragrance the item could easily be used as base of miso soup and the cooking of other cuisine.
