My friends know me well. They will often send me links and articles pertaining to food. My friend Lauren send me an email this morning containing this article and I just had to write about it.

A local advertising agency in Australia designed a bunch of international flags made up of some of the foods each country is known for. It is to promote the Sydney International Food Festival. As a graphic designer AND a foodie, I found these to be awesome.

Here are a few of my favorites:

Italy, made of basic, pasta and tomatoes.

Greece, olives and feta.

France, blue cheese, brie and grapes. 

Aren’t these awesome? You can see a pattern in the ones I have gravitated to — cheese and carbs, my two loves.  Some of the other ones they posted are super intricate and awesome. Check the rest out here.
