How does so2 preserve food?
This product contains SO2, which is a preservative used in a wide range of foods, including dried fruits and wines. It prevents oxidation and discolouration and it acts as an antimicrobial, giving dried fruits a longer life and the great looks you need for your recipes.

unsulphured alternative).
