DIY BENTO BOX EMOJI

In a new segment on HJF we’re bringing food emojis to life starting with the Japanese foods including the bento box, tempura shrimp, and nigiri. See all of them recreated in our latest YouTube video. The main focus for sure is the Bento Box. From our analyzation of the 4 quadrants of the bento box emoji we found that it includes a salad, rice, sushi, and some sort of fried food.
