Is it safe to drink out of Styrofoam cups?

I know that it's a health hazard to drink hot liquids and foods out of Styrofoam containers since the heat allowed chemicals to leech into your food/drink, but how about cold drinks or foods?

    As far as I am aware is that they are safe for hot and cold foods, but they aren't to be reused, or nuked

    If it wasn't safe you wouldn't be allowed to have it. Seeing that you have it, it is safe.
