Jingthing Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 (edited) I won't draw this out. Here it is: Thailand flag made from sweet chilli sauce, shredded coconut and blue swimmer crab. http://www.visualnews.com/2013/08/27/national-flags-created-foods-country-commonly-associated/ Edited August 28, 2013 by Jingthing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted August 28, 2013 Author Share Posted August 28, 2013 Your point being???? Just sharing. No point. Does there have to be a point? Feeling hungry? You will be after looking through this creative collection of food photography by Australian advertising agency WHYBIN\TBWA. To promote the Sydney International Food Festival, which is Australia’s largest food festival which had almost a million attendees last year and chefs from all over the world, the imaginative team re-created 17 national flags using foods native to each nation. Basil, pasta, and tomatoes create the stripes on Italy’s flag, while hot dogs and buns were used for the U.S., olives and feta cheese for Greece, and curries with rice for India and Indonesia. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted August 29, 2013 Author Share Posted August 29, 2013 i mean, that is not even thai food. Yes it is. Blue swimmer crab found in Thai waters Shredded coconut -- some Thai desserts Sweet chili sauce -- common table condiment No, not the most iconic of Thai foods, but why split hairy gourds? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post andrewrooney Posted August 29, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted August 29, 2013 So, which is worse: Having a high post count because you post pointless but fun things or upping your post count by complaining how pointless somebody else's post was? Of course, now I'm guilty of upping my post count by complaining about another poster upping their post count by complaining about a pointless post by a poster with a high post count. I think I need a drink. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goompa Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 I was actually and fundamentally looking forward to viewing the collective display of the flags of the nations involved , true , and there is a lot of money at stake for the best display , some of these creators are very highly qualified chefs and take their profession very seriously , I have seen similar conferences where they make food into inanimate objects , very inspiring as well , these creators are truly gifted to say the least. I just don't seem to be able to connect the link , sorry , connect to the information on the nerd box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puschl Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Nice display of creativity. They've implemented a kitsch concept with style (mostly). Italian tricolore dishes are a classic (tomatoes + cheese/pasta + basil/spinach/rocket). The Greek flag is interesting. Feta and olives are stereotypical, but close up the colors seem to be way off. However, from a distance the purple turns into a perfect blue. Too dark still, but an astonishing effect nevertheless. Thanks for sharing. Now where do I get a Korean/Indian/British three course menu? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
