Every day BENTO - Teriyaki Chicken-
This is a commercial of TOKYO GAS. It is a short story type commercial. I didn't know it is famous in Japan. Japanese only but probably not hard to understand.
In summary, A mother makes bento everyday for her son who is a high school student. Teenage boy is on difficult stage to handle, so conversation between them is getting less, but she decides to give him messages from mother to son though her heartwarming homemade bento.
She can't get his response to her bento, but she realizes his bento box coming back with empty is his good response. She has to make his bento for 3 years. Last day, she made 2 bento, one for her son, one for herself. At her lunch time she is having bento, she praises herself for keeping to make bento for son every single day for 3 years. At the same night, she finds the memo in his empty bento box, which says "Thank you, and sorry couldn' t say it before."
I never watched this commercial before because I live in Osaka, not Tokyo, so I didn't have a chance to notice it.
I am impressed so much and want to show to people who are interested in BENTO culture in the world.
We have BENTO culture for years.
Recent years, it has been spread over the world, and Japanese bento box is popular. I'm proud of it and glad to hear it.
I grew up with my mom's bento and I didn't know how hard to prepare bento every day at this moment. Now I have also made bento for about 5 years for my son, and have only several months left. Happy to stop this hard work and he is going to independent but I miss a little bit.
This is today's bento for my son.
