After receiving her doctorate in 2014, Zeide became an assistant professor of history at Oklahoma State University–Stillwater[5] and wrote on food, consumerism, and food systems.[6][7] She won a James Beard Award in the Reference, History, and Scholarship category for Canned: The Rise and Fall of Consumer Confidence in the American Food Industry.[8] Zeide and her work has been featured on WORT,[9] KPFA,[10] BYU Radio,[11] WYPR,[12] KERA,[13] and the New Books Network,[14] and in the Review of Agricultural, Food and Environmental Studies,[15] Stillwater News-Press[16] and The O'Colly.[17] Her work about botulism has been published in the Saturday Evening Post and Smithsonian.[18][19]
