unsulfured

Lacking chemical treatment

Unsulfured describes food products, especially dried fruits like molasses or apricots, that have been processed without sulfur dioxide or sulfites as preservatives.

Sulfur compounds extend shelf life and maintain color, so unsulfured versions tend to be darker and have a shorter lifespan but appeal to those avoiding additives: unsulfured blackstrap molasses.
