Stretching the use of the word "Bento"

We bought Molly a Fried Chicken meal at the deli in Fred Meyer's last night and it rang up as "Fried Chicken Bento Box". I know that they were technically correct since the Chicken, Mashed tater and a Biscuit were sold in a small compartmentalized plastic box-thingee... but it just sounded WRONG. Like "Hot Dog Sushi" or "Ham & Cheese Misso Soup", ya know?

Amusingly discombobulated, eh? Thank you for my morning giggle!
