Bento Boxed Lunches, Best Thing Ever!

I am losing the battle with insomnia this evening, but I did stumble upon something pretty great. It's called "Bento" and it is a Japanese box lunch delicately prepared. I am hoping that between the Cabernet and Vicodin I will be getting to sleep soon but until then I will talk about this shit. A traditional bento consists of rice, fish or meat and one or more pickled or cooked vegatables as a side dish. Containers range from disposable mass produced to hand crafted laquerware. Here is a photo montage of some of the cooler looking Bento that I saw on flickr.
