rice & beef strips bento (450yen)

This bento was similar to a lot of other bento like this, although the sauce was quite flavoraful and the noodle under the beef strips were firm. No, actually what was interesting about this bento was how i had to eat it. My coworker bought it for me but forgot to ask for chopsticks. I was hungry and had no other options so i ate it with my hands. It feels almost taboo to have the hot noodles and chunks of rice in my hands, but theres some kind of renewed knowlege of the taste when you use your hands.
