Almost all dried fruits use it, or they develop bacteria, molds and etc. through decay. It's also good at preserving the color of dried fruit, so if a dried fruit looks like what it was, it probably has the preservative. All wines contain this, even if not added, as some amount occurs naturally. Also check for it in OJ and other fruit drinks.
