Removing value from Object

I have an object that I am trying to remove from a cssProperty that is being passed to an element. I have tried several things with no luck and am at a loss.

The object looks like

Object {background-color: "#91eae8"}

and I have tried removing it like 

delete this.cssProps.background-color;

delete this.cssProps[background-color];

delete this.cssProps['background-color'];

neither has worked and throws viewModel errors because it doesn't know what I'm doing. I cannot change how the object comes in to have quotes around it or anything similar.

In css there is no such thing as an undefined property. They all have default values. So trying to remove a property doesn't work. Instead you can change the value to a different value to get the behavior you want.

I would try doing one of these 

this.style.backgroundColor = "inherit";//background will be the same as it's parent
this.style.backgroundColor = "transparent";//background will show what is behind it
this.style.backgroundColor = "inital"; //sets it to the default value
