What is bento box?

>> No.11547703

shitty nip version of a lunch box. typically contains cold, slimy rice, cuts of fish that have been rotting in a metal container all day by the time you get to it, and other shit like seaweed and eggs.

I had a heavy weeb phase years ago and made me and my husband bento boxes every morning for lunch. Sadly, he always complained that they were never enough food for him. (Even when I made the larger boxes)

The idea is to stuff as much variety and colors into every nook and cranny so that all the space is taken up. (Either by edible food, or decor food - like lettuce leaves and shit.) Rice is sort of the main stomach-filler, but around that rice, it's common to pack a variety of meats or veggies cooked in a variety of different ways.

I finally stopped when I realized that I was getting up extra early and doing all this work for a jerk who didn't even really care if I hand made an elaborate lunch or just tossed a frozen dinner in his lunch bag.

I still, on occasion, enjoy playing around with making bento for myself. It's fun to cook and I like knowing that I can make nice things that are aesthetically nice to look at, as well as good tasting.

There are tons of videos on line, of course. There's this one guy who makes bento for his whole family every day and I like to see his variety of ideas that he comes up with: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d8oK7dGCyps

My wife bought me a bento box for work lunches. It is way too small to hold an adequate amount of food, except when I'm on keto and then I pack it with nuts and meat and stuff and it is literally perfect sized because I'm used to eating less. If it was full of vegetables and rice and stuff I'd be upset too.

I suppose. However, there are may varieties that don't involve rice. (It's just a common filler.) There are larger bento boxes with multiple tiers that you can get too, so I guess it all matters on one's personal food needs.

I pray you never find yourself in a relationship where you feel neglected and lonely despite the effort you put into it. May you be with someone who genuinely likes being in your company and tells you how wonderful you are and treats you with all the love and respect you deserve.

Specifics are vague as this was years ago. Leftovers from whatever I made for dinner were a norm. Sometimes it was whatever he liked best. He liked steak and meat-heavy dishes, so it was usually a combo of those things with what little veggies he would actually eat. He was a big pasta fan, so sometimes I'd make a pasta-based bento with assorted things to go around it. I was a fan of salad and sandwich-based bentos. Your imagination and creativity are the limits to what can be done with the ingredients that you've got.

I still make them for myself sometimes. It's fun and it's a way to flex my creativity with leftovers or things that need to get ate quickly (like fruit). My coworkers seem to enjoy finding out what I brought every day, so there's that.
