A New Taste of Nationalism

[Agschmid]

Most cultures dictate that children at a dinner table shouldn't play with their food, but we think all would give designers around a conference table a pass on this rule. To promote the Sydney International Food Festival, ad agency Whybin/TBWA commissioned this series of images of national flags created with each country's indigenous ingredients and dishes.

1. Italy, Japan and Greece.

Except the Greek flag is the wrong color.

Those are cool!

2. That is pretty cool

Very well made.

Ketchup on a hot dog. Barf.

5. I LIKE ketchup on hot dogs. In Tucson, our specialty is the SONORAN hot dog -- mayo and all.

It's French.
It's decadent.

...yet somehow YOU believe that I should draw the "inappropriate behavior line" at slathering
my wiener with ketchup?

10. In Chicago, I don't think they allow ketchup on a hot dog.

And rightfully so. That's like mayo on french fries.
