Food Flags

Alex


Italy (basil, pasta, and tomatoes)

To promote the Sydney International Food Festival, ad agency WHYBIN created a neat series of flags made from the countries' traditional food. Some examples:


Australia (meat pie)


Brazil (banana leaf, limes, pineapple, and passion fruit)


India (curries, rice, and a pappadum wafer)


South Korea (kimbap and sauces)


Lebanon (lavash, fattoush, and a herb sprig)

What do you think your country's food flag should be made out of? The American flag's red stripes should definitely be made out of bacon!

I've been trying to come up with an idea for the American flag, but I think Kirsten nailed it with blueberry cobbler. With strawberries and whipped cream, you've got the right colors, and it's a food that represents "classic Americana". It's tough to come up with a blue food.

Craig is correct. These same images were used to promote the Syndey International Food Festival a couple of years ago. In fact I recall it being featured on Neatorama.

British budgetary cuts mean that we'll just reclaim the top-left corner of the Australian meat pie, but enhance the ketchup flag with a royal sausage-and-mash Onion Jack :)

I've seen those before, like a couple years ago. Are you sure they were created for this recent event? Maybe they just reused the images for the website?

I have so many thoughts for an American flag. So far the most American one I can think of that might taste good,
Blue: Blue corn chips
Stars: American cheese (yes it comes in white)
Stipes: I agree with you Alex, Bacon it could be both red and white.
not sure how all that would taste together but...
Another idea involves a blueberry cobler with strawberries and whipped cream. This was fun!
