- ronin691, on 04/17/2008, -1/+8Dugg for this string of text's never seen combination of words: "Aphex Twin - Richard D. James Album: Potato, umeboshi ( pickled plum ), fish/vegetable flakes, nori, kamaboko, rice."
- IndianaJonz, on 04/17/2008, -0/+2AMAZING! I hope it tastes as good as it looks.
- theradical, on 04/17/2008, -1/+19Yeah ok but lets see them do Sgt. Pepper's
- graemee, on 04/17/2008, -1/+3The white album would be easy, rather uniform tasting and plain. BUT I can do that one.
- jjive, on 04/17/2008, -10/+1Is this art, or just dumb Japanese people tracing artwork on rice cakes?
- RedAmerican, on 04/17/2008, -0/+1mirror please? :)
- DalamarArgent, on 04/17/2008, -2/+4The Aphex Twin one appears to have a rather severe case of cold sores.
- DatoeDakari, on 04/17/2008, -2/+3That deserves a digg up, I chuckled
- Koushiro, on 04/17/2008, -8/+1Well I know who Jimmy Hendrix and KISS are, who the hell are those other guys?
Where are the Japanese bands too? ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION, or the pillows?- StolenLamp, on 04/17/2008, -1/+2If you don't know who "Rage Against the Machine" is, then you suck. You don't have to like them, but you do have to know who they are!
- ConceptualTrap, on 04/17/2008, -1/+1Who the ***** has never heard of the Velvet Underground or Weezer either?

- Zippo, on 04/17/2008, -1/+4Ah the Japanese, where presentation is key.
Seriously, if you've been to Japan, you'll understand. The Japanese take the presentation of food *very* seriously.- alittalia, on 04/18/2008, -0/+0just couldn't agree more...+1 for you!

- JayZee2, on 04/17/2008, -7/+0Im looking for a bento box, it cant be pinku (thats japanese for pink) or any girl color. It has to be of 2 or more kotoba (thats japanese for 2 compartments) and has be be chibi (small) sized. And has to be really kawaii (cute). Also It has to be about 10-20 bux. And you have to post pics of it first (i want to make shure it's kawaii [cute]). And it would be nice if it came with matching chopstick holder (WITH chopsticks). OH! and it CANNOT have any cartoon pictures, or be made out of plastic. It has to be made of ceramic, or something like that. Also it would be nice if it was made in japan. and not in china or corea (korea) or whatever. I have found a bento box similar to the one im describing in e-bay, but it was 1 kotoba, and i dont want my gohan (rice) to touch my other things (it can get wet and i would not like that, plus 2 compartments looks more kawaii)

They could've used a real banana ... - reddcell, on 04/17/2008, -2/+1I must ask...
Why?
Perhaps we should all click on the artist's website google adsense links...perhaps the money generated by this will allow him the privelage of purchasing a rubick's cube, yo-yo, or maybe even canvas/sketch pads! - blinker265, on 04/17/2008, -0/+1didnt your mother ever tell you not to play with your food?!

Yes, that picture is real, not faked.- StolenLamp, on 04/17/2008, -1/+1Especially because no one knows who the hell they are!
