presentation by Samuels and a hands-on workshop. \u00a0Samuels will illustrate common differences in value, presentation, and nutritional balance between typical American and Japanese lunches.\u00a0 Under Samuels\u2019 guidance, everyone will have the opportunity to make their own Obento.<\/p>\n<p>The Obento or Bento phenomenon has caught on in the United States because of its balance of
