Objective:
To engage with food history through the lens of social media influencers on TikTok or Instagram, and analyze the ways in which they present and interpret historical food trends and recipes.
1. Beginning on November 1, 2024 and until November 22nd, 2024, you must watch and analyze a minimum of 5 posts from each influencer, paying attention to the types of recipes, ingredients, cooking techniques, and historical context, if any, they provide in their content.
2. Create a comparative analysis of the influencers’ approaches to presenting and interpreting recipes and food history. Consider the following questions:
– How do the influencers engage with their audiences?
– Are race, gender, class, national origin important elements of their identity and accounts? What types of hashtags do they use consistently, if at all?
– Are food trends interpreted? Is original content provided? What is the key to this account’s success?
– What kind of historical context do they provide in their content, if at all? Do they make historical recipes accessible and appealing to a modern audience? Do they connect their recipes to a broader canon of American cooking?
– Are there any differences or similarities in the way each influencer approaches cooking, recipe dissemination, and food history? You might consider each influencer’s geographic location, how often they post, are there sponsored posts, giveaways.
3. Based on your analysis, write a 1000-word reflection paper discussing your findings and insights into how social media influencers can be used as a platform to engage with and learn about food history. What is the biggest benefit about these platforms to learn about food, recipes, and food history? Are there drawbacks? Include examples from the influencers’ content to support your analysis. You may use quotes, screenshots, or video to support your argument and assertions.
