n the countryside, Hungarians consume more dairy products and, if possible, mainly domestic dairy products
Cheese, milk and sour cream – three foods without which the fridge of an average Hungarian household cannot be imagined, according to the brand research of Alföldi Tej Kft., which produces the Magyar Tej product range*. Hungarians prefer domestic products, stick to their favorite brands and usually buy them during their weekly shopping spree. While sour cream is less popular in Budapest, for example, fewer people consume Greek yogurt in the villages. Among the cheeses, Trappist is indispensable, which is why Alföldi Tej introduces 100% Trappist cream cheese to the market.

Greek yogurt is not sold in the villages
At the same time, interesting differences can be discovered between certain parts of the country, because while 93% of Hungarians regularly eat sour cream in rural cities, this proportion is only 79% in Budapest. In the case of milk, butter, and cottage cheese, even if there is not such a big difference, there are still significantly more people who snack on the mentioned foods in the countryside. At the same time, there are products for which the residents of the capital are the biggest consumers, such as ESL milk, which requires refrigeration and has a longer warranty period, which is consumed by 37% of the people living here in Budapest, compared to, for example, 24% typical of those living in the villages.
