Consumers are directly and indirectly responsible for wasting a lot of food, which could for a large
part be avoided if they were willing to accept suboptimal food (SOF) that deviates in sensory
characteristics (odd shapes, discolourations) or has a best-before date that is approaching or has
passed, but is still perfectly fine to eat[1][2].COSUS (COnsumers in a SUStainable food supply chain) is a SUSFOOD ERA-net research project under the topic 'Understanding consumer behaviour to encourage a (more) sustainable food choice'[3].
