Whybin TBWA Australia and The Sydney International Food Festival cooked up a clever way to promote last year’s fest — they used iconic foods from the participating countries to recreate their flags. From the green-white-red of basil-spaghetti-tomatoes to the orange-white-green of tikka masala-rice-saag, the results are both appetizing and a little reminiscent of middle-school geography class. Which brings us to our challenge: Can you correctly identify these 12 culinary flags?

Japan

Italy

Spain

India

South Korea

France

Vietnam

Switzerland

Greece

Lebanon

Australia

Brazil
Mouse over the blacked out area for the answer.

You don’t have any hole in swiss cheese. It’s gruyère and without hole!
Nice idea btw :-)
@Brenda – If you’d read it all through, you might have seen the text: “Mouse over the blacked out area for the answer” or even better, get your self an atlas!
Not “mouse over,” but “select”
