In this project, we will argue that the Kardashian women influence beauty standards by portraying themselves as beauty moguls to control the interests of their audience and promoting themselves as the modern day standard of beauty. This affects their audience by creating unattainable and unrealistic standards of beauty that negatively impacts their sense of self and mental health. We will explore the influence they have created and why their influence remains preferred by their audience over time, explaining how they maintain control of the industry.

It is a fact of modern food processing that the majority of products contain one or multiple food additives. Yet, while these additives see great abundance of use, the average consumer has relatively little knowledge about them and, more often than not, a negative opinion of their inclusion. This piece explores the discrepancy between these two realities by delving into the origins, histories of use, health effects, and misconceptions that surround a number of modern food additives, exploring along the way the social changes and regulatory history that brought about the legal landscape of food safety in the United States. Ten author-developed recipes are included at the end to encourage not only a conceptual, but also a practical familiarity with these same food additives.
