Tinned herring has been recalled from Lidl branches because its label does not warn consumers the cans contain ingredients including fish.

The budget supermarket's Herring Fillets were being sold without warnings that they contain allergens including fish, milk, egg, mustard and gluten.

Under Food Standards Agency rules, potential allergens must be labelled in English on food products.

The FSA said: "Lidl is recalling cans of Nixe brand assorted ‘Herring Fillets’ (200g) because they contain one or more of the following allergens: fish, milk, egg, mustard and wheat (gluten) which are not mentioned in English on the label.

"This may result in a possible health risk to anyone with an allergy or intolerance to one of the above allergens."

A Lidl spokesman said: "We recalled the products because some items, including fish, egg and wheat, were not declared in the ingredients list and can be allergens for some people."
