Thank you.

box.Value();

this will retrieve the long value associated with the selection when you added the item to the box list

  box.AddItem("Pizza",1);
  box.AddItem("Sushi",2);
  box.AddItem("Burger",3);

So above when you select by index you would send "2" for selecting the burger , but when you actually request the value of the selection it returns 3 , or the equivalent value set upon addition.
