“…The reason for those low values may that Betz quantified mass of delivered food, and not mass of served food as in the present study. However, the waste levels at the organizations contributing to this study are slightly lower than the 27% and 27.5% reported by Martins [25] and Boschini [26] according to the strictest criterion in this study. However, the variations in the results we observed when comparing criteria levels for "Waste (%) of served food" and when comparing the different segments indicate that the results from all previous studies can be regarded as falling within the "normal" range.…”

“…The application of the framework is presented through a fictious example, inspired by the existing literature on school canteens (Cerutti et al 2016;Boschini et al 2018;Garcia-Herrero et al 2019) and representing a realistic situation. It is assumed that a generic school canteen catering company aims at evaluating the environmental and economic consequences of an intervention aiming at the prevention of serving and plate waste during school lunch.…”

“…Meanwhile, nonserved food and plate waste comprised 221 kg (20%) and 430 kg (39%) respectively. In a similar study on food waste in Italian schools, it was concluded that nonserved food and plate waste accounted for respectively 19.2% and 22.0% of prepared food (Boschini et al, 2018). Non-served food and plate waste is waste, that is preventable and prevention is important for school catering.…”
