For some people, sulfites are dangerous, even deadly. They can cause headaches, Asthma, and other allergy reactions. The problem is more and more processed foods contain sulfites and it is not necessarily on the label. Corn starch, corn syrup, white grape juice, lemon concentrate, and caramel coloring are processed with sulfites and can contain trace amounts. By eating many processed foods, the accumulations can add up. Watch out for dried fruits, wine, beer, french fries, icings, fruit juices, condiments, baked goods. The list goes on and on. Corn syrup, especially, is used in more and more products. No wonder the incidence of asthma is on the rise.

The answer depends in part on your application. Also, 'best' in what sense? Formaldehyde is a very effective preservative for biological specimens, but is not suitable as a food preservative if you intend to eat the food, as it is quite toxic. Copper compounds are excellent wood preservatives, but are also quite toxic. If you are looking for a non toxic food preservative, try salt or vinegar!
