You are welcome to use claims of fact or definition; value; cause/effect; or policy/solution. (Pssst: The thesis types we discussed at the start of the semester are on Canvas).

Potential topics include the fast food industry, industrial farming, obesity, corn and/or high fructose corn syrup, ‘organic' food or any type of labeling, biotechnology, the cattle or and ‘protein' industry, GMOs, etc.

Your essay should be 4-5 pages.
