It’s almost as if you get 9 little reviews in one! This Trader Joe San’s Rice & Vegetable Bento Box is a hot topic in the food blog world lately. Even though Trader Joe’s has a great history of high-rated frozen food items I had my doubts about this one. How can an item with such diversity of ingredients all cook perfectly in the microwave?

The Frozen Food Master reviews this Trader Joe’s Rice & Vegetable Bento Box. He will tell you how this frozen product looks, smells, and tastes in this episode of Freezerburns.

    I wish I had a Trader Joe’s closer to me than 400 miles. I like Bento Boxes in general, but after your review…I’m not sure I’d want to fork out $6 (plus $120 in gas) for the Trader Joe’s bento box. I will however, be happy to take any mushrooms you don’t want. Mmmmmmmm mushrooms!

    Alice is the bomb. Favorite Brady Bunch character.

     ah! i feel so special, I learned ALL about Bento Boxes in class this year. The stories behind them are SO interesting, and I find it odd that Trader Joe’s makes one (apparently not all that well!)Ive had hairy edamame before, I think its normal. and I KNEW the rice was going to be dry. it looked so dry from the picture we saw.QOD- def Marsha! because I loved her long blonde hair :) p.s. like the hair cut!

    There’s an odd-ball science as to how it’s possible to nuclularize nine items in the same amount of time to interest the taste buds.

    I just say no to the idea!

    It just takes freezer burns (Greg, not you) to a new low, imho.

     Thanks for the Bento Box Review Greg! I love Many of Trader Joes items. the frozen stuff seems hit or miss. Bento Box definately a miss and I will pass on it. Fav trader Joes stuff, Frozen has to be the Orange Chicken ( i bake the chicne in the oven) , Fresh the Chicken 
    salad and Always get some cookies!

    Fav Brady Bunch Char – Alice and Tiger!

    “greg brady quadrant” hilarious review. very interesting product, i don’t really understand why it was created. a sort of sampler, and clearly not set out to satisfy people.

    thanks for this entertaining review

  • Hairy Edamame

    I think Hairy Edamame might be my new alias!  And I always liked Sam the butcher.
