次の映像福島県産の青果、１５分で完売
「これから福島の安心できる美味しい野菜を直売いたしますので、よろしくお願いします」（福島県八重洲観光交流館の人）野菜を買い求めようと集まった大勢の人たち。東京・中央区の「福島県八重洲観光交流館」では、福島県産の安全な野菜や果物を売る催しが開かれました。ホウレンソウやカキナといった葉物野菜などについては、食品衛生法上の暫定規制値を超える放射性物質が検出されたことから摂取制限が出されています。
しかし、出荷や摂取制限が出ていない野菜などについても消費者が買い控える傾向があるため、福島県はイメージアップをはかろうと、県産のアスパラガスやいちごなどを用意しました。会場では、販売開始の午前１０時前から長い列を作り、およそ１５分で完売しました。
「イメージだけで“もう買わない”とか“買い控えしよう”とか、福島の全部がダメみたいになると、そういうイメージがつくのが怖いので」
「大丈夫なものもいっぱいあるし、私たちがいっぱい買って食べて、また皆が元気よく作ってくれることを願って」（客）今回の売り上げは、福島県を通じて被災者への義援金として送られることになります。（03日12:11）

— Updated: 2:23 pm -->The Lunch Box: Clearing Out Leftovers
By SAMANTHA STOREYSamantha Storey
Samantha Storey is trying to make her packed lunches less boring, one box at a time.
I’m ashamed to admit it, but I eat lunch almost every day at my desk. It’s not that I don’t like to eat out, but like most people, my work days are busy and convenience is king. Plus it’s amazing how much money you save brown bagging it. Lunch around Midtown, where The Times offices are located, quickly adds up to a good sum of money. I make it at home for about a quarter of what I’d spend if I bought lunch every day.
I used to bring sandwiches or the fixings for a salad in a plastic container. Maybe a side of yogurt or an apple, too. My turkey sandwiches were soggy. My salads lacked flavor and texture. Sometimes I wouldn’t even eat them at all, throwing them out at the end of the day with great shame at wasting my food.
A year ago, while reporting an article on the spread of bento lunches outside Japan, I was so inspired by some of the sources I interviewed that I started making my own bento boxes. Mostly I try to repurpose what’s in my refrigerator or pantry. Sometimes it’s just peanut butter and jelly cut into appealing shapes, with a side of fruit and cheese. Other times, like today, I need to use up the leftovers in the fridge, soon to go bad. But the fact that it looks miles better and more colorful makes it so much more appealing to eat. I’m still figuring out the best way to display everything, and usually this is dictated by time. I really only have about 10 minutes in the morning to put this together.
So here is what I made for today, set in a bento box I bought from Muji for $21.95. I will be blogging weekly on Diner’s Journal using this box to display one of my lunches. My mission is to find new and better ways to gussy up the food, as well as other ideas for what else to bring.
From top left clockwise: The chicken fingers are from Monday night, when I made a batch for my son; Tuesday’s roasted yellow cauliflower; the roasted squash was made last weekend when I attempted Melissa Clark’s squash Wellington; rice was from last night’s dinner with curried lentils; grapes for dessert. The little green tub has dressing for dipping the chicken. I bought it a year ago, but there are other condiment containers available at From Japan With Love.
I love to clean up today's dinner leftover for lunch tomorrow.
