The most noticeable lack of control in the dairy industry. Butter and milk, and sour cream are falsified.

Products are diluted with palm oil, in the baby food we find an antibiotic.

This is reported by agronews.ua.

Importers, including European ones, are massively selling illiquid in the Ukrainian market.
"Ukrainians mentally perceive imports as qualitative. But in fact, the Polish cheeses we tested were 100% falsified. All products in different percentages contained fats of non-dairy origin. There is no accompanying documentation: neither the quality passport, nor the customs declaration, nor the waybill. All this is contraband, - says Honchar. "Why products illegally enter our market, this is already a matter for the security service."

Honchar added that almost 50% of the Ukrainian counterfeit products had been found, and these products increased every year.
