Clean Plate campaign

419:—a Chinese brokerage firm estimated the loss of Chinese rice production is roughly 5% compared to last year. The traditional Chinese diet has a north–south divide with southerners eating rice and northerners eating wheat as the main staple crop. However, the wheat harvest in 2020 was also not promising. In an announcement issued on 5 August, China's National Food and Strategic Reserves Administration found that the wheat harvest was nearly 1000 tons lower than the 2019 level. Although the relative shortage was not serious enough to starve millions of people, lower supply with unchanged demand means higher price. China's National Bureau of Statistics states a 10% price increase in July compared to a year ago. Because people substitute their crop consumption due to the bad harvest of rice and wheat, corn and soybean became more expensive. There was an estimated 20% price increase in corn and 30% price increase in soybean compared to 2019. In response to the supply shortage and price increase, the government released 62.5 million tons of rice, 50 million tons of corn and over 760,000 tons of soybeans from Beijing's strategic reserves by the end of July to stabilize the food market. This amount was nearly double the volume released during the whole of 2019. Within the same year, there was also a summer drought in the north, unprecedented typhoons in the northeast and a pest outbreak in the southwest. Such harsh climate conditions made not only farming but also the whole domestic supply chain very difficult; for example, transportation. 494:, originated in South Korea in 2010 has become very popular in China. To some, watching people eating piles of food in front of them is appealing and satisfying. This market demand attracts a lot of people entering the field. However, one often needs to really stand out in this competitive market to gain subscribers, fame and money. So many of them adopt a similar practice of eating contestants in speed eating (or competitive eating). They consume a lot more food than what a normal person could eat, like 10 bowls of noodles or 20 hamburgers a meal. Because most of the people uploading their eating videos cannot really eat that much food in a short period of time, instead of real speed eating, what many of them will purposefully vomit what they have eaten to take in more food. This happens repeatedly, so a 20 minute video could be made after editing hours of raw footage. In the cases of real livestreams, streamers will also use emetic measures after the stream, so they can quickly get ready for the next stream. This production cycle damages many people's health and results in serious food waste. It became a public secret for its popularity andvsoon attracted the attention of authorities calling to end or fundamentally rectify such practices. 651:
duration and systemic impact of this campaign: "the operation against food waste develops into a movement of political importance, it may render the campaign short-lived, instead of making real changes in the institutional system". The reasoning behind it is that people need to fully understand the problem to deploy the best strategy to change, however the government's top-down measure is often too arbitrary and "one size fits all" which usually only eliminate the problem on the surface while causing new unintended problems. There were two examples given to support this argument. First, an annual banquet of a government agency was suddenly called off after serving the first few dishes when officials learned about the attitude and regulation above, which ends up wasting all those food prepared while those people will still find another place to get them fed. The second one is at school, where students were too afraid of leftovers that a student threw up for finishing a dish, while another cried over a meatball given by mistake. These reports suggested that the government's intervention actually harmed the grass-root campaign and hindered more creative and humanitarian approaches.

movement. On 28 January, Xi Jinping instructed on the issue by stressing the significance of disciplining party members and state officials' public-funded dining behaviors and urging the relevant authorities to implement measures to ensure food security. Individuals and groups in China have been very used to and accepting of the guidelines from above. Some of the effort by restaurants and schools mentioned above were also in part made possible because of the various papers and instructions from above demanding changes, for example the issue of "The Announcement about doing frugal education and establishing economical schools" by the Ministry of Education on 26 February 2013. The most solid major achievement from the state's effort is to successfully regulate the officials in wasting taxpayers' money on lavish banquets, which helps to reduce an average of 3,000 metric tons of kitchen waste per day in Beijing only.

2017 that there has been a sharp decline in food waste from officials' banquets due to limiting the use of government funding, "because they are more likely to waste food while using others' money". However, along with the decline in lavish feasts held in outside restaurants, the levels of food waste in the dining halls of government institutions have increased. Due to the tradition of "rewarding the public servants", food in the dining halls of government institutions is provided at a price much lower than the market price. Since the campaign, more luxuriously decorated dining halls have been built, often including private rooms for inviting and treating guests. This phenomenon shows the incompleteness of the campaign, because waste is still present in this form while there is less public exposure and social influence.

population of farmers and tradition of agriculture, food and planting is a strong cultural symbol throughout Chinese history. However, feeding a population of hundreds of millions of people is not easy; famines happened many times, even after the establishment of the People's Republic of China (PRC) in 1949. To the older Chinese population, the feeling and memory of hunger is still fresh, which dictates their dining habits. Some keep living frugally because that is what they have been used to, but some have "revenge spending" on food, as "If there's something left in the plates, they have their face. They have a sense of security. If you have more than you actually need, it's something to be proud of." Zhang Ye, one campaigner of the movement explains the rationale of food wasting in relation with famines in the past.

entire food making chain. It means to reduce both food waste and kitchen waste in every step of processing, producing, consuming and disposing. The Wuhan Catering Industry Association proposed a system called "N-1 ordering", meaning that each group could order no more than one dish lower than the number of the diners. Soon, Xianning and Xinyang, in Hubei and Henan province respectively followed the example of Wuhan and made the same proposal. However, this suggestion encountered some suspicions and concerns, as some believed it is too rigid by harming small dining groups and limiting people's food choices. It is also considered to harm the interests of the catering industry and individual restaurants because no restaurant wants to limit customers from ordering more food.

resurgence of the coronavirus." Such behaviors reduced the supply of crops in the market, which further drives up the price. Due to the pandemic, many people, especially under-protected marginalized populations, were very vulnerable to such a price increase of staple food and pork. Another aspect affecting food supply and price is rage purchasing or food stocking. A survey in April 2020 showed that 79% of respondents stocked up dry food items like rice, noodles, flours etc. during the coronavirus outbreak. Fearing the second wave of the pandemic, a higher stock of food than usual was required. According to basic economic theory, higher demand usually leads to a higher price, which adds more pressure to the middle-lower class in China on their food security.
595:, Zhou Xiaozheng justified the connection between fighting waste and fighting corruption, stating that "Since the issuance of Xi's eight-point guide for official conduct at the end of 2012, an average of 3,000 metric tons of kitchen waste per day had been reduced in Beijing (20–30% of total kitchen waste, depending on the data source), mainly due to reduced public consumption". The timing coincides with the Clean Plate campaign, which started in January 2013, when top officials including Xi Jinping and numerous state news reports supported the movement by stressing the importance of reducing food waste and emphasizing the significance of stopping lavish banquets that used government funding, seen everywhere in Chinese bureaucracies at the time. In 2012, 456:, in which China promised to increase its purchase of American agricultural products, especially soybeans. However, the shadow of trade tensions adds anxiety and uncertainty to the Chinese government especially at the height of a global crisis. Such perceived over-reliance on importing food from the U.S. is politically and strategically unpopular to the Chinese government. The central committee of China in the next five years specified to prioritize national food security, intending to reduce China's reliance on agriculture imports from countries such as the U.S. and Australia, with whom Beijing's relations have become tense. This is a dilemma to the Chinese government and makes food security a 524:

Moreover, this incident coincides with "law of anti-food waste" which was passed through the Standing Committee of the Thirteenth National People's Congress on April, 29, 2021, which is only about a week before this controversy. Under the law, eateries could face a penalty of between 1,000 yuan (US$ 160) and 10,000 yuan (US$ 1,600) if they mislead customers into ordering excessive quantities of food while food manufacturers could be fined between 5,000 yuan (US$ 785) and 50,000 yuan (US$ 7,850) for causing wastage in the productions.

Some methods uses the rewarding mechanism, honoring kids and classes who do well in participating related activities and eat up their food. There are also activities like bringing students to rural areas to experience farming and more frugal living. It is reported that the University of Science and Technology Beijing indicated that the food waste has been reduced from 35 to 40 barrels in the two dining halls on campus to 22–25 barrels since the "Clean Plate Campaign", which is almost 40% decrease from the original level.

publicity strategy of printing QR codes inside the yogurt drink bottles to enable fans of the show to support their favorite contestants. Due to the high popularity and large fan base of the show and individual contestants, the craze for voting triggered large food waste because supporters would buy hundreds of thousands of bottles of the drink to only get the QR code. Because people cannot finish the drink, they would simply pour them out. This has gone beyond individuals' actions of food waste, instead it shows that about 40 to 50 people were hired for the job every day.

The quantity of food waste is found to be associated with a variety of factors: restaurant size, purpose of the meal, etc. On average, tourists waste more food than local citizens; larger restaurants have more serious food waste than smaller ones; and friend-gathering and business-purposed meals contribute to higher food waste. The study also found the food waste in primary and secondary schools to be above average, potentially due to low satisfaction with the quality of school dining.

Rural and low-income consumer's dietary knowledge is found to increases the quantity of food waste more substantially than that of the urban consumers.
