Ekiben, boxed meals sold at railway stations with long-distance trains are very popular among the Japanese. They are typically filled with locally grown ingredients and dishes unique to their region, and their wrapping paper usually depicts the scenery or a specialty of the particular place. One of the joys of travelling in Japan is eating ekiben and local food.
