Common to Japanese cuisine, a bento box is a single-portion lunchbox that usually holds sushi and a few other small side dishes.

I recently came across these amazing recreations of album covers that were created with the ingredients that are often found in bento boxes.

Here are my favorites:

You’d probably “Kiss the Sky” when you ate this Hendrix cover made from nori, paprika (red & orange), egg and rice.

Concerning my post on “Was Weezer’s Green Album Really Green?,” this cover made of cabbage, nori, ham, kamaboko, paprika and rice is totally green…and edible!

There’s nothing evil about this album made from egg, paprika, nori (seaweed sheet), kamaboko (fish sausage), carrot, potato, ham, black sesame and rice…okay, maybe the fish sausage is evil.

You can see a few other album covers here.

Too bad Billy Madison didn’t have one of these in the second grade. He just might have been cool.
