If you're ever in a pickle about what a specific country's most famous food is, the 'World Food Map' is a conveniently helpful ethic food guide to every country's most popular dish.

The 'World Food Map' infographic is designed to look like a colorful atlas map with every country visually depicted using an orange, red and blue color scheme. Over top of each country is the name of its most famous and popular meal collected using an extensive list of [Google](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/campaign-management-platform) search suggestions. Some countries' popular dishes might not surprise you -- Canada is obviously known for its Canadian bacon and China for its fried rice -- while others are down-right baffling. Who knew Australia was known for its meat pies?
