EDIT: I just realized that this bento was featured on reddit, and getting a lot of traffic to this page from different sites. I noticed that one editor in particular praising my bento on their site said that the potato salad “is probably spoiled.” I usually ignore any negative comments, especially if it’s someone else’s page, but this is a bit different. Not just assuming my bento is spoiled, but to actually write it out is uncalled for. It’s freedom of speech, I know. So I decided to defend myself on my blog.
For the people who are coming to this site from the website I’m talking about, I want you to know that my bento isn’t “only for the looks” and everything on my bento is definitely not spoiled. (Yes, not “probably” but “definitely”) If you read my “about” page, you’ll know I keep all my food in the fridge while I make different food for my bento.
For me taste is just as important appearance, after all I’m giving it to my boyfriend to eat for lunch, and he’d be the FIRST to know if anything was wrong with the food. :P
Now to my actual post…

The last bento in 2008 was “Where The Wild Things Are.” I enjoyed making it, but it was more for me than for my boyfriend… so I wanted to make a bento of something he grew up with.
