I need to know if there are any preservatives in the cherries? My mother has allergies.

Yes, but it pertains to the cherrie/fruit and you will have to contact the manufacturer for the name of the preservative as it does not appear to be on the side of the box.

I certainly can't address the question re: timing. What I CAN attest to is -- I have never received a shipment of the Traverse Bay Dried Cherries that was anything but THE Softest, Sweetest most wonderful dried cherries imaginable! At one point a couple years ago, there were NO MORE CHERRIES! Had to wait until the new season... It wasn't easy, believe me!

Nope, just on cherries and olives. . . sure wish I could find some fresh lychees though!

Montmorency cherries are used I believe. This juice isn't as concentrated as some of the others on Amazon, hence the cheaper price. I prefer Cherry Bay Orchards Montmorency Concentrate and if you go to their website you can get a good deal on 8 quarts delivered. I also like Uncle Harry's Tart Cherry Juice concentrate, you can get it at Super Supplements, they might have it here too, it comes in a 21 oz. brown glass jar which I prefer, cause I don't like plastic chemicals mixed into my food. Hope this helps.

It is a lot of cherries because they are dried, and it is very hard to find high quality ones like these that are just cherries( but still really good) without any additives or sugar. I think it is worth it.

It says naturals cherry fruit extract 500mg. That is all the information it gives about the cherries. It says nothing about the fructose. The cherry extract is 1 g. I hope this helps you. I have been taking them with good results for years now.

Can't tell you what type of cherries are in these. We use Oregon as the best option for cherries available in our area. We make Cherry pies every November but aren't quite ready to start with fresh cherries. Of the canned available in our area, the Oregon Fruit co cherries have been the best. Since we have only ever used canned cherries we have nothing to compare against.

The label does not specify the variety of cherries, except that they are "tart". The ingredient list is: Cherries, Sunflower Oil. There is only one variety in the bag and they taste good--like I remember tart cherry Jolly Ranchers tasting (in my sugar days).

Sorry this took so long. No nut trees or fruit trees with fruit with pits-like apricots, cherries, peaches are listed on the label. Only Pears and apples.

Hi, Jon -- This is a REALLY serious question, and I'm afraid I don't have an answer. I did look up Ruth's Foods on the Internet, and they can be reached at (416) 588-4209, or by email at info@ruthsfoods.com. If you have ANY allergies, PLEASE contact them before consuming this product. For some reason, food allergies are on the rise in the U.S., and as I'm sure you know, they can have lethal or even fatal consequences. Take care, and please be careful!Best,Dennis

These cherries are sweetened with sugar, but the package does not have the dietary info so I don't know how many grams of sugar are in a serving. They are not too sweet.

I would imago on the cherries are from Oregon but you could contact the company in Oregon and ask them to get your best answer.

It says fructose and sucrose on the ingredients list. Try the no sugar added cherries by Country Spoon!

Yes. It says "PRODUCT OF USA" on the back of the package. INGREDIENTS: Montmorency cherries, sugar and sunflower oil. I use them in cookies and other baked goods. I substitute dried cherries for raisons in every recipe as they are much tastier!

Both. From the cherry flavor label, ingredients are as follows: Water, high fructose corn syrup, caramel color, citric acid, granulated sugar, FD & C red #40, natural and artificial flavors, natural gums and sodium bensoate (preservative). Not the healthiest, but they sure are the best tasting I've found so far. For an occasional treat, can't beat them.

No, like most dried fruit, they require no refrigeration. I recently bought these cherries and found them to be of high quality and very tasty.
