Three friends at a lunch table each bring a different lunch (a sandwich, rice and noodles), and thought bubbles show each one comes from their own family, with their own culture and story. The video shows that different is not wrong: we don't say "yuck", we ask a kind question like "What's that?", and we listen while a friend tells us they cook their noodles with Grandpa.
