This open-access book delves into a comprehensive examination of various aspects related to the regulation of Novel Foods in the European Union. Through an interdisciplinary approach, it offers a thorough understanding of this complex topic, encompassing the current EU legislative framework, its innovative aspects, unresolved challenges, and limitations. Special emphasis is placed on food safety concerns and the potential implications of Novel Foods on sustainability and food security. Additionally, the book focuses on a specific category of Novel Foods: insects for human consumption. These products have gained significant traction in recent years, following the first EU Commission authorization of dried yellow mealworm (Tenebrio molitor) in 2021.
The book contributes to the ongoing public discourse surrounding this long-awaited authorization by exploring the legal complexities arising from the application of the Novel Foods Regulation to these unique and novel foods. It also examines the risk assessment evaluations conducted by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) and assesses consumers' perceptions and potential future market prospects for insect-based products in the EU. By providing such an extensive analysis, encompassing recent developments and future prospects, the book serves as a valuable resource for students, academics, institutions, and public authorities alike. It aids in their understanding of the diverse challenges associated with Novel Foods and edible insects. Furthermore, the book aims to foster an informed debate to identify innovative solutions to pressing concerns about feeding the world of tomorrow.
