Is Dried Fruit Dangerous?       02/16/06 05:00 AM Edit Reply Quote cardshark Reged: 01/29/06 Posts: 36 Loc: Phx, AZ I have been reading a lot about sulfites and sulfiting agents as preservatives lately. They are considered a trigger for IBS, along with MSG. I bought some dried mango the other day and had never bothered to read the package--figured it was just dried fruit and sugar! I had an attack later the night I ate it, and when I went back over what I ate, I realized by looking at package ingredients that many of the snacks I ate that day had "sulfiting agents" or "sulfar"--which in itself sounds really bad! I can usually have an alcoholic drink every once in a while when I am stable, but wine has been bothering me lately--for the same reason. Most wine has sulfites in it as well for a preservative. Has anyone else experienced this with dried fruit? I am throwing mine out! -------------------- *Janice* "Where there is love there is life." -Mahatma Gandhi Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
