Reading-Based Research 
For this option you will write a traditional essay based on research from at least four different sources. Materialcan be found in books, magazines, peer-reviewed journal articles or other online articles.Below are some suggested topics:*However, the suggested topics are a broad topical guideline only. You will needto further refine your topic to make it a focused argument-based research paper (i.e. more than just a purelydescriptive paper). For example, if you pick ‘Organic Food’ perhaps you refine the topic further so that it becomes:“The Rise of Organic Food and the Problem of Corporate Influence in Organics” OR “The Rise of Organic Farming inOntario” or “Are Organics Really Better for Us?” Many of these topics are controversial so be sure you representthe complete range of ideas and positions on the topic. Please note: for this research, do a topic other than whatyou may have done for Assignment #2 on food movements. Your paper should be a maximum of 750-1000 words(3-4 pages double -spaced).
