However, such food products as caviar, olives, balyk began to appear less often on the tables of Ukrainian citizens.

However, there is a positive balance of consumption of bakery products.

At the same time, the residents of the capital decreased demand for milk and dairy products by three percent, oil consumption was reduced by eight and a half percent, and tea and coffee were reduced by three percent.
