Lunch should have its own thread

Anyone ever try those little lunchbox cookers? There's quite a few brands now. When I've traveled I've always brought along a little "hot pot" to heat up soup or make mac and cheese, or other little meals. Now I'm seeing full blown cookers with multiple tiers that you could cook a decent meal in. The one I've seen the most is by Itaki:

Amazon.com: Electric Lunch Box, 3 Layers 2L Portable Electric Heating Bento Lunch Box Food Storage Warmer Container Rice Cooker, 110V 200W, Stainless Steel+PP: Kitchen & Dining

When I cook most of my meals at home these days, its in a little 3 cup rice cooker. Its the perfect size for one person. When I cook otherwise, I tend to end up eating the same thing for a week. With my little rice cooker ($3 at a garage sale), you can throw in a little vegetable broth, some noodles, and veggies and you have a meal for one.

No, never bought one of those. But they sound useful if you're out and about a lot - but obviously you'd need access to a power source.
