“We choose a natural product, because it is very useful for a child. The child grows, his mood improves, he runs, plays and he almost did not get sick, "- says the mother of a child - Inna Smal.

Ukrainian parliamentarians also stand for natural milk, sour cream and kefir. With the help of a special law people’s deputies advice to separate milk products from the products with milk content which include vegetable oil.

"The shop boards will be separated, milk products will be separated from the products with milk content, a consumer will have a chance to make a conscious choice and he will know more about what kind of product he purchases", - sais the Head of the Department of Protection of Consumers Rights and Advertising of State Consumer’s Inspection of Ukraine - Yuriy Sahno.

“But even the product with different impurities should contain at least half of milk fat” - emphasizes the State Consumer’s Inspection of Ukraine. Also, the inscription that this is a product with milk content should be written with capital letters. And most important - it should be cheaper than natural product. Factories and markets, which will depart from the standard, are going to be punished. The owners who will have no separate shelves in their shops for such products will pay a fine from 1700 to 17 000 UAH.

The penalty for dishonest producers of products with milk content, who will add too much vegetable oil , for some reason, is much less, from 850 to 3400 UAH. For the absence of the label that the product consists of milk content, the milkmen will be responsible as well, by paying the entire cost of the product to the state. Therefore, they all are against of such an innovation. Impurities are harmless, and the law will only lead to the jump in prices.

"There is a system of technical regulation and standardization. Taste and smell – all is regulated by the standards. The product will be expensive, but we have different sections of the society "- said the President of the Union of Dairy Enterprises of Ukraine, Lidia Karpenko.

The Committee on Agrarian Policy and Land Relations recognizes that the document still needs to be updated.

"The bill does not solve the problem of both - the quality and price settlement," - says the Chairman of the Committee of the Verkhovna Rada on Agrarian Policy and Land Relations - Grygorii Kaletnik.

Meanwhile officials and milkmen are debating, dieticians advise to the Ukrainians to take care about their health. They say that dairy products of law quality are harmful for the liver, pancreas and cardiovascular system. They also add that, if the milk free of vegetable fats still can be found, then the cheese or fresh sour you‘ll have to search for a long time.

“People should take 200-300 grams of milk, because it contains a daily dose of calcium, "- says a dietician Borys Skachko.

But in Ukraine from 11 million tones of milk, that are gathered each year, only 5 tones are suitable for processing. Therefore, it is quite natural, that with the wide variety of dairy products on the shelves of our shops and even in the jugs of many street vendors, exists a lot of dangerous substitute. And consumers are saving from it on their own.
