Trader Joe’s is recalling some packaged fish that could cause problems for people with certain allergies.

More than 350 cases of the store’s gluten free battered halibut was mislabeled. The packaging failed to list milk or wheat as allergens.

These ingredients could cause life-threatening responses in people with severe allergies to them. No illnesses from consuming the product have been reported.

The fish is packaged by Seattle-based Orca Bay, but branded as Trader Joe’s and sold in the grocery chain’s stores. Customers who bought the fish may return it to Trader Joe’s for a full refund.
