Supplies of Scotch eggs, sausages, pork pies and more British comfort food could be limited in Spain due to the increasingly common 'Not for EU' labels on food products.
These labels have been obligatory on meat products going from the UK to Northern Ireland since last August, and will be extended to all fruit, vegetables, fish, milk and dairy products by 2025.
Originally, the idea of these labels was to prohibit the sale of UK products in the Republic of Ireland whilst respecting its free movement over the border with Northern Ireland. But it could have a knock-on effect for Brits abroad as certain favourites may be unavailable in specialist import stores that serve Britons in Europe, including the more than 400,000 UK nationals resident in Spain.
