Because food shouldn't touch.

Mr. Bento encourgages me to take a responsible sized portion of 4 different foods, then keeps them warm (or cold) until lunch. Plus, it's not as lame as those soft, insulated lunchbox bags that everyone else at work has.

great kit for lunch - no need for brown bags! Everything you need and stylish and easy to use.

Awesome for gluten free, those who suffer from allergies - bring your food from home, kept cool or warm and eat wherever without a fridge or microwave.

This is the best bento box ever!

Love the lunch jar for an adult lunchbox, bento. All the containers are very useful. (via sciencegeek)

Excellent item read about it on amazon.com and decided to buy it. Great Storage option and definitely an added bonus to control the portions you eat. Great product!!!! (via FashionKitty)

"Most folks have fond memories of their old-school metal lunchboxes, but sometimes a lunchbox just doesn't cut it, especially when hot or cold food is involved. Enter the Zojirushi Mr. Bento lunch jar, which comes with a series of microwaveable bowls that keep food hot while you're working. The bowls come in 15.2-, 10.1-, 9.5-, and 6.8-ounce sizes, perfect for rice, soup, a main dish, and a side dish. The bowls also stack conveniently inside the washable container, which employs vacuum-insulated stainless-steel construction to preserve the temperature of its contents for hours. If the bowls aren't necessary for your meal, simply use the jar by itself to keep other foods hot or cool. The bundle even comes with an easy-to-carry bag for convenient transport."
