Food waste has become a very serious global problem that urgently requires the global attention and improvement. The promulgation of the Anti-Food Waste Law had a great impact on the China's catering industry, however,there are still many problems that need to be solved. Due to the advancement of information technology, online ordering services are gradually emerging, and the consumer online ordering behavior towards restaurants is increasing, leading to an increase in the degree of food waste in the catering industry. Due to many factors that affect food waste and some of them, such as personal consumer norms, it is difficult to change and limit the personal food waste behavior because it is controlled by subjective thoughts. This study proposes targeted suggestions based on not only the current situation but also the influencing factors in the Chinese catering industry, hoping to provide new ideas and ways to improve this situation.
