In light of the global extent of food waste accruing every year, in addition to prevention measures, a circular, waste-based economy for food waste valorization is proposed as one potential remedy. Profound knowledge is missing on the consumers' willingness to take part in circular systems for the reduction of food waste.

Edible insects were suggested as a potential tool for the sustainable valorization of food waste and production of valuable proteins, food, and feed products. This insect-based food waste valorization strategy faces a number of obstacles — one being the consumer acceptance of the resulting food products. An overview of existing strategies for the promotion of novel and/or waste-based food, as well as insect-based food is given and compared.

考虑到全球每年累积的厨余，除预防措施外，还提出了一种循环，基于废物的经济，用于厨余增值，作为一种潜在的补救措施。消费者缺乏参与减少食物浪费的循环系统的深刻知识。

食用昆虫被认为是食品废物可持续增值以及有价值的蛋白质，食物和饲料产品生产的潜在工具。这种以昆虫为基础的食品废物增值策略面临许多障碍，其中之一就是消费者对最终食品的接受程度。给出并比较了促进新型和/或废物基食物以及昆虫基食物的现有策略。
