You may want to take a look at the cheat sheet, either before viewing it for the first time, or between the first and second viewing. Some are easy to discern, like bratwurst being Germany, pretzel being Nazis, Matzah crackers for Jews and a bagel with cream cheese and lox for Israel, burger and fries being America (updated in later times with the more advanced weaponry of Chicken McNuggets and a fried chicken sandwich), sushi for Japan, croissants for France, fish and chips for England, . Various middle eastern countries have different types of kabobs.

Food Fight Cheat Sheet

It's done in the manner of Claymation, only with food. Some of the depictions are just brilliant, like the Pearl Harbor, The Bomb, the Cold War, the Twin Towers. The invasion of Kuwait, Skud missiles, Smart Bombs, the night bombing of Bagdad, roadside bombs, the whole bit, it's all in there. It's very well done.

And no, we don't see the hamburgers slaying innocent kabobs using unfair chicken nuggets just to get the couscous. :D
