We’re huge fans of Ochikeron and her super-kawaii “Create Eat Happy” video series.

In this clip, she assembles three very different bento-style lunches in plastic travel tumblers. What a great idea! As an added bonus, check out her impressive array of convenient utensils (the interchangeable spoon/fork/chopstick travel set is awesome!), cooking gear (sign us up for a triple frying pan!), and single-serving frozen side dishes packaged specifically for bento and found only in Japanese supermarkets (we’re partial to the mini Salisbury steak!).
