The aim of this review was to assesses consumer preferences and its determinates towards milk and milk product in Ethiopia. To do this review secondary data such as books, journals, and domestic and foreign published articles were used. According to different past studies result fresh milk, traditional butter, butter milk, cottage cheese, whey and ghee were the common products which consumed frequently in almost all part of the country. Fresh milk was the most preferable product in the country as compared to others due to high fat content, availability, taste and lower price. The review indicates that better educated household head, higher income households, younger and female household head and people who agree with “unpacked and unprocessed milk is not healthy” consume more packed and processed /pasteurized / milk than do others.
