In Japan, boarding the bullet train with a bento box you've bought in the station is a time-honored ritual for lunch-on-the-go. These ready-made meals allow travelers to dine on different regional specialties as they're riding a high-speed train — also known as the shinkansen — between unmissable Japanese tourist destinations like Kyoto and Hiroshima. The trains have airplane-style seats, but with more leg room. When you sit down, you can unfold a tray table in your lap before unwrapping your ekiben (station bento) like a little gift to your stomach. It helps to know what food's inside and which region the box hails from so you can pick out the right one for your travels.

Then, the city sweeps the encampment again, and they get to come back to the shelter for another 30 days, Prosser explained. This process can repeat multiple times.
