How to Use Bento Box

To use the Bento Box symbol (🍱) in HTML, insert the entity 🍱 directly into your markup. The decimal entity 🍱 works in any HTML-serialised document.

In CSS pseudo-elements use content: '\1F371';. In JavaScript and TypeScript the escape '\u{1F371}' evaluates to 🍱. In Python source, write '\U0001F371'.

The character encodes to F0 9F 8D B1 as UTF-8 bytes and D83C DF71 as UTF-16 code units. Its decimal codepoint is 127857.

This is a fully-qualified emoji and should render with colour on iOS, Android, Windows and macOS. Appearance may vary between platforms, but the underlying codepoint is identical everywhere.
