Ensuring food system is one of the most challenging tasks of the world. Despite the best efforts, millions of people around the globe are malnourished or live with hunger. Hence, we highlight the potential role of alternative crops (ACs) to achieve sustainable food systems to meet the sustainable development goals (SDGs). The introduction of ACs in new regions is more essential to fight against the global food crisis to enhance food safety. Nevertheless, the adoption of ACs would rely upon the implementation of food systems and consumer healthy food habit.
