Anna the Red, best known for her incredible [video game-themed bento boxes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bento-cookbook), went and made a WALL-E sandwich, complete with egg EVE and M-O sandwich friends. The WALL-E on wheat seems easy enough to make; all you need is bread, filling, a cheese single, and two blueberries (you could probably substitute these for chocolate chips).

In addition to her WALL-E sandwich and video game- and anime-inspired bento boxes, Anna the Red also makes [anime and video-game-inspired sandwiches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mcdonalds-japan-evangelion-burgers). Parents of finicky eaters everywhere, rejoice!
