Sulphur dioxide is used in many items of processed food, particularly in drying apricots. I know that some people have a problem with this. What is the most likely adverse reaction to the substance and how serious can it get?

Space, time, infinity and all that stuff...

Thanks In A Pickle, that's very interesting info. It certainly explains why my sister has been warned to avoid the brightly coloured dried apricots as she is inclined to respiritory problems. Think that I will try to stick to the dark and usually organic ones that don't have it in them.

BTW, the second two links get you nowhere! One is revamping their site and the other is page not found. Never mind, you initial reply has helped.
