Way back in February 2010 Geoff posted an amazing list of gaming bento boxes that blew me away. However it looks like the moms and dads of Asian kids have been hard at work as this next list leaves those in the dust.
Wait! what’s a Bento? For those like me who don’t know what a Bento box is then our in house Asian is here to help
The Bento is a traditional Japanese lunchtime staple, a single-portion meal generally consisting of rice, a meat of some sort and vegetables for good measure, fancifully arranged in a box. And Although available as commercial, mass-produced meals, the best ones are made by the Japanese wife and mother.
So now you know.. now let’s look at the boxes shall we?
So moms and dads, who feels inadequate this morning? All my kids got was a sandwich and some snacks.
My favourite is easily the Bioshock one but Geoff had that one in his list as well, so after that I’d have to go with the Nintendo DS

I suppose if I play around with the lettuce I have right now, and cut a tomato in half, slice up the eggs I have, and squish the chickpeas I could come up with something resembling a dog’s turd…
