What is this? Some packs of matjes (young herring) with onions from the Netherlands have the wrong “use-by” date printed on them.
What's happening? The date on the label may be later than it should be, so the fish could go bad sooner than you think.
Does this affect me? If you bought this product in Germany, check the date on your pack.
What should I do? Throw it away or return it. If you feel unwell after eating it, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
