Space Invaders in Bento Boxes

If you are an avid fan of Japanese food, then I am sure you must have heard of the Bento boxes, which are known for their quaint design and separate compartments that allow you to have your meals without mixing them up. Bento boxes come in two types, made of lacquered wood or of plastic with an anime on top. The recent addition to the huge array of Bento boxes is the Space invaders bento box, which has smiley faces.

Take a look at the image above – the brainchild of FighterHayabusa, where the top box has cous cous with red bell peppers and chili sauce, while the container at the bottom has ground beef and smiley made of red bell peppers, which is complemented by a really spicy hot red chili sauce.

If you are avid Pacman fan, this idea of FighterHayabusa where Pacman made of yellow pepper that sits pretty on a bed of black beans and rice would surely make you hungry. To match it, you can have Teriyaki salmon couples with fried portions of yellow and pepper sesame seeds.

For those of you who love spicy food, these bento boxes are definitely worth a try. The best part of these boxes is that they are trying to bring the characters of space invaders into these lunch boxes, making it all the more interesting. So, go and have one for yourself today…or check out the Tetris Bento or Sackboy Character Bento lunchbox.
