	Bento Summary
		The chief characteristic of a bento is portability.
		A bento is traditionally made in a 4:3:2:1 ratio: 4 parts of rice, 3 parts of the main dish (either meat or fish), 2 parts of vegetables, and 1 part of a serving of pickled vegetables or a dessert.
		These bento were common in during the second World War, both because of the scarcity of food and the desire to and necessity of avoiding displays of excess while maintaining an image of stout patriotism.

	BBC - h2g2 - Bento - Japanese Food
		Bento is the Japanese version of a packed lunch, usually taken to work and school by adults and schoolchildren alike, as a convenient and nutritious meal.
		Bento can be traced as far back into Japanese history as the 5th Century, when people who spent all day working away from the home (hunting, farming, fishing or fighting) needed something nutritious that they could prepare quickly to take with them as they travelled.
		Because bento is a dish that is eaten a considerable amount of time after it is cooked, any food that is used in the meal is chosen and prepared carefully.
