why do the sultanas have oil added to them?

Dried fruits like currants, raisins, berries are sometimes coated with light oils to prevent spoilage and preserve taste and nutrients. The oil lightly seals the fruits from losing their natural aroma and original flavour, it also prevents mildew from infesting the fruits by sealing their pores from fungal spores.

Do they have added sugar and/or oils?

No added sugar. According to the manufacturer (Waitrose) as of August 2019, Ingredients are just sultanas & sunflower oil.

Could we please have the list of ingredients (organic or not sulfate free or not soy or sunflower oil - or post a photo of the back of the packet?

Sultanas and sunflower oil. That is all that is listed

A little bit of home

So hard to find a good substitute for sultanas in the US, so I was very happy to find these on Amazon. I can have them in my oatmeal every morning now.
