I wouldn't be buying food waste. I would collect it from local shops or restaurants and have the larvae eat it.
Yes, you need to be careful not to feed them large quantities of ultra-processed foods, but that can be done.
Also, when it comes to transmitting disease:
"Black soldier fly larvae do not transmit diseases because they do not bite, sting, or act as vectors, and their digestive system effectively breaks down pathogens in the waste they consume. Additionally, they have a short lifespan and do not survive past their larval stage in food processing environments, minimizing contamination risks."
