I keep reading the Tokyo Dining menu and the Bento Box keeps jumping out at me. Unfortunately it doesn't say exactly what comes with it. Have any of you tried it? What all did you get? How did it taste?

I can't speak for Epcot's bento box, but I can tell you what it consists of in traditional Japanese culture.

It's simply a lunchbox - that's what it means and it's usually wrapped in a cloth to carry around. It's a single serving consisting of various forms of fish/sushi, assorted veggies, rice, or onigiri (rice balls). Sometimes, the food will be carved into little shapes or animals. They are sold at convience stores in Japan.

I'll assume that the one at Epcot's Japan is going to contain sushi of sorts, with rice and veggies. But I've never had it - only real bento.
