Well I am an adult so I kind of have to make my lunches myself. Not to mention I don't eat as much American type foods (at least I don't prefer them) so no one I know would probably be able to come up with something I like

Thank you! It was delicious. You can look for a grocery store that sells asian style ingredients (I got to Jungle Jims if you've heard of it). Or you can always order on line of course

I got them at Jungle Jims. It's good, a bit chewy, kind of like jerky, but with a lot of fishy flavor!

I know! They're like perfect size, especially with a few drops of soy sauce!
Yes it was! It was so delicious~! I love having variety so I like to stick as much as I can into one bento. All the little surprises are the best part!

How cute!! I like that you added taffy.
What kind of stores can I get the little soy sauce container? I need one for my bento sets.

haha thank you! we got some when we went to jungle jims yesterday so i thought why not?
mine came with my bento "starter kit." i would buy them off of ebay personally though. you can choose which ones you want and the quantity.

I got mine off of ebay. It came with a nice starter kit too since I didn't have all the things I would need. I got the flower silicone cups off of ebay as well.
[link] This is where I got mine, they come in three colors: red strawberry, yellow plum blossom, and blue dragonfly.
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Oh wow. o.o Now it makes me really want to go buy one! I really like the blue dragonfly one, but there seems to only be one that has everything except the fork is yellow since the blue ones are out of stock.
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
they'll probably get back in stock soon. You can always just search ebay for something you like too

Definitely, I found some really neat stuff but I was surprised to hear how small the boxes really are.

worry about the mL not the size. the size isn't as important as the amount that goes in. [link] this will tell you about what size you will want to get. remember japanese eat less than americans so it may take a couple weeks for your stomach to shrink (unless you don't eat a whole lot normally - my mother thought it wouldn't be enough for me but actually i would leave some when i first started) it's a lot more food than you think

Normally I don't eat much and I'm aware of the Japanese lifestyle. But I'll check out that link right now to take a closer look. Thanks.
