Hi,

May I know the correct word to use to describe food that is not sweet.

Thank you !

Between these two, choose 'unsweetened'. Almost no one says 'non-sweetened'. 'unsweetened' is used with foods which are normally sweetened to show that these foods taste a bit different from what you might expect.
