Best Answer

There are really no limits to what can be in a Bento box or what can be in it, but the traditional bento consists of these parts:

4 parts rice

3 parts meat or fish

2 parts vegetable

1 part pickled vegetable or desert

The traditional Bento has the rice ball known as onigiri, and is made of sticky rice, vinegar, nori which is seaweed, and a filling. The filling can be fish, meat, or pickled vegetables. The traditional is Ume, which is the pickled plum.

I hope this helped! ^ . ^
