Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
For your lunchtime pleasure, I'm presenting a series of my favorite bento boxes. Bento are Japanese home-prepared meals served in special boxes, usually eaten for lunch at work or school. These days, bento enthusiasts from all over the world share their creations on Flickr.

Pretty nasty looking, although I when I posted Peanut Butter Dog Biscuits shaped like poo piles the other day, I heard from someone in Japan that was telling me poo-shaped food was all the craze with the children.
