Compare and Contrast two articles



Using the articles, “Here’s Why Salads Feel Feminine and Nachos Seem Manly” by Tanya Basu and India's War On Biryani Mixes Caste, Religion, Cow-Avenging Vigilantes by Sandip Roy, both articles utilize evidence differently to support their claims on two different issues. The evidence in the Basu article uses more scientific studies to display the data on the perception of food while the Roy article is using details from experts in the field to display the information. The Basu article draws on more psychology based research as the Roy article uses more observation based studies.  Both of the articles use more secondary sources as the people featured are experts that study these issues and the studies are used to provide more information.
