There is one old food tradition in Japan. It's called obento or just bento. Mothers give their children lunch boxes with traditional Japanese food, such as rice, fried meat or fish, fruit and vegetables. Sometimes mothers add to lunchboxes the food that the child would not normally eat, to get used to it.
The food should be nutritious and healthy, but it also should be attractive. Thus, mothers make the obento in the shapes of footballs, eggs, rabbits, flowers, and even cartoon characters.
Children are proud of their mothers' lunchboxes and they usually eat the food with chopsticks or the fingers.
Nowadays, Bentos have become very popular, you can buy them almost anywhere: at theatres, airports and even at train stations. There are more than 400 magazines where you can get some ideas for your bentos.
