World can enjoy the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) that it aims to achieve by 2030.

Hotel Nikko Tsukuba's restaurant "Selina" in Azuma, Tsukuba City, Ibaraki Prefecture will be open from 30th to May 8th so that the world can enjoy the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) that it aims to achieve by 2030. We offer desserts using the edible container "Mogu Cup". This menu with the message "de-disposable" was triggered by an interview with an elementary school reporter of the "Ibaraki Children's Newspaper" of the Ibaraki Shimbun.

"Mogu Cup" made from potato starch is jointly developed by Asahi Breweries, which has a factory and research institute in Moriya City, with Marushige Confectionery in Aichi Prefecture. Currently, Asahi Yuasa, who has taken over the social contribution business, is focusing on popularization as a substitute for disposable plastic cups.
