If you drink your coffee from a Styrofoam cup – you should probably switch to something else...
Most Styrofoam contains the chemical styrene – which is considered a carcinogen. Styrene is actually in a lot of the plastic containers and household items we use – but lots of exposure to it could cause damage in white-blood cells and increase the risk of cancer. Drinking hot beverages from Styrofoam on a daily basis is probably not a good idea – and we’re better off opting for cardboard to-go cups or non-plastic travel mugs for our coffee and tea.
