“…The holistic utilization of slaughtered animals has been forgotten during the course of transformation towards a high degree of specialization in meat consumption which has taken place in recent decades. Consumers nowadays mostly prefer certain pieces of meat (fillet pieces), while many of the remaining parts (e.g., offal) are rejected or regarded as waste [3,4]. Recently, however, there has been a trend back to the holistic utilization of slaughtered animals, especially in gastronomy, and also in private households [46].…”

“…Culture and tradition, as well as the related habits and familiarity with certain foods, are of importance in determining which types of food are consumed [13]. For this reason, many plant "second cuts" are regarded as less high-quality residues that need to be disposed of [4]. In addition, many of the "second cuts" are fibrous, tough, or bitter when raw and they need to be processed to become palatable [71].…”

“…The disposal of secondary streams is associated with costs for food-processing companies [30]. Through their use, however, new products such as food additives can be developed [4,43]. Overall, the importance of processed foods is increasing [78] so that there is also a need for food additives.…”

“…While it was a matter of course in earlier times to use food holistically or more efficiently than nowadays [3], this practice has lost importance in the developed countries due to the existing surplus of food [4]. However, in recent times, a mindset change or rather a return to previous ideas has started, partly due to the increasing importance of sustainability in the food sector [5] and the public discussion about food waste and refuse [1].…”

“…It is being realized more and more that food is too valuable that only certain parts of it are used. Besides the sustainability-related advantages of an efficient use of food, there are also various options for saving costs and developing new products or dishes [4]. Different methods for the efficient use of both plant-based and animal-based foods are already known, which can be implemented at various stages of the value chain.…”

The efficient use of natural raw materials is a key element of sustainable development and is also gaining importance in the food sector. Consumers are increasingly realizing that food is too valuable to be used only partially. However, consumer acceptance is an important precondition for establishing efficient food utilization options. A total of 470 German consumers were surveyed through an online-questionnaire where they had to evaluate three options each for the efficient use of plant-based foods as well as animal-based foods with respect to eight different criteria. The results show that the six options differed significantly regarding consumer acceptance. The efficient use of plant-based foods (especially non-standard fruits/vegetables and the "leaf-to-root" principle) was more accepted than the efficient utilization of animal-based foods. Furthermore, it can be seen that options using the by-products in a natural form were considered more acceptable than those which subject the by-products to some form of processing. These results provide an insight into the views of consumers on food waste reduction strategies, which are frequently debated in the sustainability discussion.The acceptance of consumers is an essential precondition not only for being able to utilize the various methods of efficiently using either plant-or animal-based foods but also for successfully establishing new products based on food by-products [6][7][8]. Some studies show that sustainability-related [9] and ethical aspects [10] have gained in importance in food consumption on the side of the consumer. In addition, there is also an increasing general awareness of the subject of food waste and a growing appreciation of food [11,12]. Nevertheless, based on people´s culinary habits, the by-products of foods are still often regarded as waste [13] and are negatively associated by consumers (e.g., contamination) [14,15].It is known that deficits of trust in the food industry on the side of the consumer [16] can have adverse effects on the acceptance of the various methods of efficiently using foodstuffs or even the development of new products using by-products from the value chain stage of the food processing industry. The use of by-products for food production can be associated with consumer concerns regarding the use of raw materials of lower quality for cost-saving or the production of products of reduced quality [8]. In addition, consumers can have reservations towards certain innovative technologies [17], which are sometimes used for the efficient utilization of by-products.Against this background, six options of efficiently utilizing food, located at different stages of the value chain, will be presented and discussed in the following. Three methods for the efficient utilization of plant-based by-products will be considered: the "leaf-to-root" principle, non-standard fruits/vegetables, and the innovative production of valuable substances (by means of food and biotechnological processing techniques). The three methods for the efficient u...
