Abstract
This essay won or received an honorable mention for The Boothe Prize for excellence in first-year writing. The Boothe Prize recognizes and rewards outstanding expository and argumentative writing by undergraduate students in the first-year Writing and Rhetoric classes, Integrated Learning Environments, and Thinking Matters programs. In each award-winning essay, student writers demonstrate clarity of argument, excellent integration of research-based evidence, and compelling prose style. In this essay, Veronica Kim first explores the history of cooking and cookbooks before transitioning into the recent boom of cooking videos on social media; she concludes her essay by emphasizing that these food videos need to start focusing on healthy cooking and changing perspectives about healthy food.
