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.
This post-Thanksgiving bento, from FoxyMartini, turns mashed potatoes into a Gray Chinchilla with a bit of food coloring, raisin eyes, ham nose, and nori whiskers. Belly is white American cheese. He sits atop several slices of Fuji apple and a container of gravy sauce for the adjacent turkey.
