Video Game Controller Bento

xbox 360 controller L’Eggo My Bento

If you have tired of the lack of taste you experience every time you lick your video game controller, maybe it’s time you found some alternative uses for it. I know mine happens to be super scrumptious, especially after the more vibration-heavy sessions, but if yours is not, this bento that Laura crafted for her husband may be right up your alley. Mimicking the shape of an Xbox 360 controller, the bulk of this single-portion Japanese lunch is made from jasmine rice with the accents coming from yam cake, egg white dyed with blue food coloring, apple peel, lemon peel, and red pepper. You may think Laura’s creation is more delectable than my controller but once you take the teriyaki-flavored SPAM into account, I’m pretty sure I win. Just sayin’.

    Teriyaki flavored spam? Euhhh….I like the guide button, very awesome
    I don’t like mixing my food up like that, so I guess this…bento…isnt for me. :)

  12. Angel I have just the controller for you. Its one of my old Xbox 180 controllers. After winning 56 out 56 1v1 matchmaking games I finally lost by 1 kill to what I thought at the time to be some bullshit. Enraged I through said controller into wall. It now vibrates constantly when you plug it in, and got renamed “The Sex Box Controller” by some sorority girls.
