When it was announced earlier this month that Sainsbury’s would be changing the name of their chicken kievs, it sparked the inspiration for one of my supermarket taste test comparisons.
The retailer is in the process of renaming it’s chicken kievs to chicken kyivs, in support of Ukraine in light of the recent Russian conflict. The move came as Kiev is the Russian name for the Ukrainian city, with Ukrainians spelling it Kyiv.
And while during my supermarket shop I didn’t spot any packaging with the new spelling, it’s expected to be rolled out in the coming weeks, with most people accepting the new spelling as correct.
