Is there sulfur dioxide in your dried fruit? Thanks

Sorry I don't know. We sent it as a gift to a relative. The company that makes the fruit pack should be able to answere your question.

Yikes. I'm not sure if there was, but most peaches/apricots are treated with that or else they turn a rather icky shade of snail brown.

The ingredients label reads: Apples, sulphur dioxide and sulphur metabisulfite (to maintain color).

I believe that they did have an odor but I of course laundered them before use and they were fine. I have several sets, as I eat tons of fresh produce daily and I would be lost without them!

This question is quite worthwhile and should be submitted directly to the producers. The product description on Amazon says: "No preservatives or sulfites". That was important to me. However, nowhere does it say that these cherries are "organic". Therefore, we have to assume they are not. I noticed in other reviewers' comment that they reported an oily coating on the cherries. In some cases, that coating had even gone rancid and the customer had to ask for a replacement which turned out to be excellent. I was not aware of any quality problems with these cherries and these remarks concern me... Our experience with these cherries has been wonderful all the way ! I hope you can get more details from the producers. This question is quite worthwhile and should be submitted directly to the producers.

The Jar says: Dextrose, Ascorbic acid (vitamin C), citric acid, silicon dioxide to prevent caking. Contains no sulfites. As an aside, when I was a kid they used to grind up vitamin C tablets and add to the peaches they were canning to keep them from browning. This product is much easier to use and works well.

I can only answer for my experience. I sent this to my sister and her family. It was packaged perfectly and the fruit was fresh.

I ordered this awhile back...can't remember when. Label on actual package says: "Best when used by Nov 7, 2013". However, I have ordered this box containing 2 large bags twice in the past and they have lasted over a year. I wouldn't worry: It's dried fruit. f you're concerned, maybe you should freeze them. But I certainly would not worry about this. Dried fruit lasts for years...or eternity.

I just looked at the bottle and it does contain sulphates. Sorry, I wish there were more sulfate free options.

No idea about the sulfite content. But after trying local health food market, found their dried tart cherries more flavorful and fresher to make the increased price worth the switch.

You will have instructions with uour dehydrator. Recipes? You really don't need any. ANY fresh fruit can be dried. I've dried tomatoes. I even took small pieces of turkey, sprinkled a little seasoning on meat and made turkey jerky.

In the USA fresh grapes are sprayed with sulfites to make them last longer. So, only certified organic raisins or the ones you grow at home do not contain sulfites. Many of us are allergic to it.

Here's the link to the vendor's Web site with nutritional information. It doesn't specifically state sulphur as an additive, but you might be able to contact them to make sure. http://www.shorelinefruit.com/cart/14/unsweetened-dried-fruit/dried-unsweetened-cranberries---1-lb Hope this helps!

I didn't see sulfur on the label. Not sure if it's better than the one you had because it was my first buy. Never bought the one you are are talking about.

Ingredients: Organic apricots There is no mention of sulphur dioxide on the label. They are delicious!

There were no sulfites in the processing....plain dried cranberries and a lot of them which wouldtaste better cooked in hot cereal or baked cookies....plain they are not tasty......

I really dont know....I don't think so in the dehydrated. They are about as natural as it gets..We use the dried product quite often and really enjoy the taste and the texture of the vegies and the meats and fruit as well!

I called the company to ask this same question. I was told it contains sulfur granules and gypsum granules.
