Why this is better

The References section cites three academic-style sources (Smith 2022 'Journal of Culinary Studies', Brown 2023 'Urban Sociology Review', Lee 2021 'Environmental Studies Journal') that do not correspond to any findable real publications; generic author names paired with plausible-sounding but non-existent journal titles is a fabrication pattern.
