Are you looking for a Mrs Bento lunch jar?

Well, do you mean Mr Bento or Ms Bento instead?

Zojirushi’s stainless lunch jar series only come in Mr Bento, Ms Bento, Mini Bento and Classic Bento. We think so far they have not manufactured any Mrs Bento yet.

The most popular Mr Bento stainless lunch jar contains four microwaveable inner bowls, a forked spoon with cover and a bag for easy carrying. It is also BPA free. The outer container features durable stainless steel construction and vacuum insulation that can allow you to keep food hot or cold for hours.

If you do not require transporting four bowls of food, Ms Bento offers you another alternative with only three microwaveable inner bowls. There is also a forked spoon with cover and a tote bag for carrying. It is also made of stainless steel with vacuum insulation and is BPA free as well.

Whether it is Mr Bento or Ms Bento, Zojirushi’s range of stainless steel lunch jar delivers. Customers who have bought them are amazed at how their foods were still kept cold or hot after a few hours. We are quite sure you will not be disappointed as well. Isn’t it awesome to have a hot, piping lunch on a cold day or a cool, crisp salad on a warm summer day as you wish?

Just to share some of my fellow Mr Bento fans’ blog posts:

These are the reasons why I like the Mr Bento:

Well, my idea of a perfect Mr Bento is:

Many people are concerned about this question when they are researching to buy the Mr Bento Stainless Lunch Jar.

Is Mr Bento microwave-safe? Is Mr Bento dishwasher-safe?

Well, the four inner containers without their lids are microwave-safe. You can microwave them just before packing them into your Mr Bento outer container to keep your food warm. Remember never to include the lids while microwaving as they may get distorted and it would be difficult to fit them back onto the containers again.

Mr Bento’s outer container is definitely not microwave-safe. It is made up of two thin layers of stainless steel to create a vacuum that keeps your food hot or cold. Never ever put them in the microwave! This sounds silly as I know you wouldn’t do that. Just a word of caution though.

As to whether the inner containers are dishwasher-safe, unfortunately they aren’t. But you can wash the inner containers easily with dish-washing detergent and I would prefer to air them dry. Sometimes there may be a smell if you have put strong smelling sauces or stews in the containers earlier. What I will do first is to soak the containers with hot water and detergent for a while before washing them. That could help get rid of the smell and also makes it a lot easier to wash off any oily stains.

I hope you have a better idea of how the Mr Bento works now. You can also read more Mr Bento Stainless Lunch Jar reviews of actual customers who have bought this lunch jar.
