Although we've been especially weary of spiders ever since a Toronto man brought a black widow home with him from Whole Foods, the creativity of this festive meal charmed us. Combining potato croquettes, fish salad and salmon rice, this Halloween bento box masterfully created a spooky -- and very leggy -- spider made out of seaweed perched atop rice.
For more visually satisfying edible feasts, check out Reiko's Bento Lab on Flickr, for everything from a depiction of mustachioed Dali on rice to a bento box artfully sculpted into a face. If the food components weren't equally ingenious as their appearances, the meals would be too good to eat. Either way, one thing is certain: Never has playing with your food looked so good.
