Pure Genius. Food Flags

August 19, 2010 · Mustapha Hamoui

Someone had a thought: Why don’t I recreate the flags of countries using main ingredients in their cuisines and take photographs of them? The results turned up to be fantastic. My favorites are the Italian, the Japanese and the Indian flags.

Of course, a special mention goes to our completely edible Lebanese flag, made from Lebanese flat bread, tomatoes, cucumbers and Parsley. I would have also added Labneh to the middle though..
