So, what is kaliummetabisulfit?

Kaliummetabisulfit, also known as potassium metabisulfite, is a food preservative and antioxidant commonly used in the food industry. It helps to prevent spoilage by inhibiting the growth of bacteria, yeast, and mold, and also helps to maintain the color, flavor, and aroma of food products. Kaliummetabisulfit is often used in the production of wine, beer, and dried fruits, and can also be found in some processed foods, such as sausages and canned vegetables. While generally considered safe for consumption, some individuals may be sensitive to this ingredient and experience allergic reactions.
