The aim of this paper is to study the opinion on the use of non-traditional cereals (barley and einkorn) in three different countries (Bulgaria, Macedonia and Croatia). In Bulgaria 81.90% were men and the other 18.10% were women. In Macedonia, 33% of men and 67% of women completed the survey, while in Croatia 14% of the respondents were men and the remaining 86% were women. More than half of the respondents consume cereals and cereal products. Those that consume cereals believe that whole grains have a positive impact on health. Those who do not consume cereals, do so because they are on a diet or have intolerance to cereals. In Bulgaria and Croatia, the reason listed for not consuming cereals is dieting. The most frequently consumed cereal product is bread. In Bulgaria, following closely after bread are cookies, and in Croatia and Macedonia, muesli are second used products. People from Croatia, Bulgaria and Macedonia know that barley is used in beer production, but a few people know for bread, cookies and other bakery products makes with barley flour. More than 1/4 of the respondents in Croatia and Macedonia do not know about einkorn (Triticum monococcum L.) and their products.
