The 12th edition of “Tohoku Fukuko Bento” to support reconstruction will be unveiled before sales on the 8th. The ekiben has been renewed since the Great East Japan Earthquake in an effort to support recovery through the power of food.
There are 18 types of bento boxes made with ingredients from Tohoku, such as fried kamaboko made with octopus processed in Minamisanriku Town, Miyagi Prefecture, and grilled salmon caught off the coast of Sanriku.
