Abstract

Way before Russian-Ukrainian War started in 2014 there were ‘Cheese Wars', a cold war-type economical conflict between Russia and Ukraine which foreshadowed an existential threat for the whole country in the microcosm of then-booming cheese industry of Ukraine. After dissolution of the Soviet Union the industry had to shift to European standards and since 1998 it entered a new, blooming and exciting phase. Even now, at the height of war, Ukrainian cheese industry manages to thrive. From mass market cheeses snacks made with unique innovative technology inspired by NASA to large plants managing manufacture under enemy's fire; not excluding artisan cheese of rich and unique tradition, Ukraine has a lot to offer when it comes to cheese. A lot of the topics covered were never properly covered in English and will be presented in this chapter for the first time in English, serving as an introduction to Ukraine and its cheeses for international readership.
