I sure love dried apricots..... that's (ape-ri-cots)

Picked up a lb of them last time me and my girlfriend went grocery shopping. I've since resisted the urge to inhale them all in one sitting and have had a few at a time throughout the past two days...

Well I've also had terrible gas for the past two days....

I thought I saw a special note on the container but didn't pay too much attention then I made the connection... the preservative must contain sulphur.

Sure enough "Contains Sulphur Dioxide, as a preservative. Product of Turkey"



Looks like I'll be buying my apricots ,sans sulphurous chemicals,  somewhere else.

the problem is, without the SO2, the apricots rapidly turn brown. Then no one will buy them.
