Bento come in every size and shape imaginable, because they are just lunch boxes. There are plain bento just like there are plain lunch boxes for American adults to take their food to work in. :p
You will find very few "authentic" bento that keep food warm and a lot of them can't even be put in the microwave because bento are traditionally a cold packed lunch.
Yeah, that's what I'm discovering. :) I think the main difference is how the lunch is packed, rather than the box itself. I just want to be all cute and creative with my lunch. I've seen some pieces of Tupperware that are divided or have smaller pieces that nest inside.
