When you think of French food, smelly cheese and grapes are probably the first things that come to mind.
As is pasta at the mention of Italian cuisine, or curry when asked about Indian gastronomy.
So it's not hard to see why these commonly associated foods have been plated up alongside others to recreate some of the world's national flags in a collection of photographs.

National treasure: The Australian flag is created with meat pie and sauce, with star shaped holes lending themselves to the flag's more detailed sections
Britain is synonymous with scone, cream and different coloured jams, with the Union Jack depicted by some of the highlights of afternoon tea, while America's Star Spangled Banner is perfectly animated by hot dogs and dots of mustard to represent the flag's 50 stars.

Indonesia's national flag is created with spicy curry and white rice
Spain's civil flag is identified by its chorizo and paella rice.
More adventurous creations are seen in Thailand's blue swimmer crab, shredded coconut and sweet chilli sauce - three local delicacies that are best served separately perhaps.
Unsurprisingly, Turkish delight was used to represent it's national namesake as was Swiss cheese, often known as Emmental.
More exotic foods were sourced for the display such as South Korean kimbap, which resembles Japanese sushi but uses sesame oil to flavour rice rather than vinegar.
Lebanese lavash, a soft, thin flatbread, is served with fattoush which is a bread salad made of sliced pita and vegetables.

Local delicacy Kimbap makes up South Korea's black, red and white flag
Ahead of the Sydney International Food Festival, the company has released photographs of their efforts which cleverly serve up 17 national flags made entirely from international delicacies.
The agency, WHYBIN/TBWA, is making preparations ahead of the festival's opening in October, when hundreds of thousands are expected to gather to celebrate global cuisine for a whole month.
The festival is the largest of its kind in Australia and attracted close to 1million foodies last year. Its highlights are the Night Noodle Market and Breakfast on Bondi which invites enthusiasts to the most important meal of the day on the fames stretch of beach.
