Obachi’s Jacket Lunch Box 18.05.08
Obachi’s Jacket Lunch Box is quite possibly the best food website on the internet.
Obachi is a Japanese designer who got bored of making himself standard bento boxes (Japanese lunch box) everyday so decided to mix things up a bit by using his bento ingredients to recreate famous album covers.
Here’s Nirvana’s In Utero constructed from rice, egg, umeboshi, salami and potato.
Kasabian’s self titled album is a simple affair made from rice, seaweed and kamaboko.
Not all of Obachi’s creations sound that tasty though - Spiritualized Let it Come Down consists of a slightly unappetizing mash potato and bread only.
Never Mind the Bollocks is egg, rice, ham and seaweed.
Jacket Lunch Box now has over 100 of these ingenious creations and I’m pleased to see Mr Obachi has at some point listened to Aylesbury rock outfit Merllion and crocodile shoe wearing Geordie Jimmy Nail, via 1985 compilation album Now That’s What I Call Music 5.
