[For Everyone] Taiwan schools have giant steamers to heat bentos; before lunchtime, mountains of these stainless steel bento boxes are heated up. Recently, its retro cuteness made it a hugely popular souvenir as a bento or accessory box in Shin-Okubo shops.

[Unique Eating] Eating the hot bento heartily with a metal spoon, clanking loudly without worrying about rice and side dish juices mixing is the Taiwanese way!
