About Hokkahokka-tei’s One-Hand BENTO at Banpaku Summer Festival 2026
Originally launched during the Osaka-Kansai Expo at the Healthcare Pavilion, the One-Hand BENTO was designed as a futuristic meal that can be eaten easily with one hand. It features sixteen-grain rice and a variety of delicious side dishes, making it perfect for quick meals while exploring the festival. The series has sold over 220,000 units since its debut and remains a fan favorite.
