You can have bentou boxes from JList (Bentou section). As for one with food in it, I don't think it's possible. You can't even cross the Canada-USA border with a hot-dog and they're probably made and package at the same place. Crazy

Unless you want your bentou quarantine for 40 days, I wouldn't recommend it. Wink

Never had problems with JList. They ship fast and you don't have to pay taxes and custom fees. Mr Green

Ahh thanks. Big Grin

And I didn't need any food in the bento. Sweat
I'd be afraid if the food was bad by the time it arrived..

So you just need the box, ne? Head Scratch

Try Mitsuwa or Marukai, if there's one around.....
