    I must admit I didn't know bento boxes kept the food warm! I must investigate, especially in winter.

    Yes they do, you can even get USB ones to plug into your pc at work to keep your lunch warm ;) if you are so inclined to do so. Failing that, a wide mouth stainless steel flask works just as well.:beer:

    Just clicked on the OP's link and security alert popped up! Beware.
    Money is not the root of all evil.
    It depends on how you obtain it and how you use it.

    Have you sold your soul to the devil?

    No security alert for me, however the original post that the link leads to has been removed from the authors blog.

    Checked the link page in explorer (I use firefox) a tracking cookie was detected for the original page.
    As the original link no longer exists I suggest that it is removed from the post and flickr image links used for the bento boxes instead. It's an alternative for those who wish to view the type of things that were originally posted up by aurora borealis.

    Just a suggestion :)

    I finally got around to take some pictures of my new Alladin Bento box. I meet teenage DD for lunch every day and we sit at the park for our lunch. I am really enjoying it and so is DD. ;)

    And this is with the little divider in, it was big enough to hold the left over coq au vin we had for dinner last night and the other section is cous cous:

  • I'm really interested in these but don't think I'll be doing hot lunches. I love the look of the Laptop Lunchbox Bento sets but can't seem to find them at all in the UK. Has anyone tracked them down at all?
