Hi,guys this is Kazu from Japan. Today's topic is Japanese traditional food. "Bento Box". Bento Box is  a box, made of plastic or lacquered wood, divided into compartments which contain small separate dished comprising a Japanese meal especially lunch. A traditional bento box contains rice, meat or fish witth some veges. You can eat Bento-box in most of Japanese restaurant. But it is potable, therefore people make bento and bring it to schools or their workplace. It is also good for picnic. This is a picture of traditional Japanese Bento-box.
These days, many people are making decollated bento called "Kyara-ben". People turn their bento into the character they like and make it more interesting. Usually, mothers make these kind of bento for their children. Here are some photos of "Kyara-ben".
