What is this? Some bags of frozen shrimp from India did not say on the label that water had been added. The label also said more protein than was really in the bag.
What's happening? Germany told shops to stop selling these shrimp because the label was wrong. The extra water and wrong protein number could trick shoppers.
Does this affect me? Only if you bought frozen shrimp from India with this label. Most shops have already taken them off shelves.
What should I do? If you still have the bag, return it to the shop. Ask your pharmacist or doctor if you have questions about food labels.
