I really don't know!. Sorry, but with allergies, especially food allergies, it is better to be safe than sorry!.
Don't do it!. Don't eat them!. I know a guy who is allergic to Red #40!. It is that coloring agent that's in everything!. Poor guy can eat almost nothing!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

When in doubt, ask!. The company itself would probably be the best to ask, and if you have allergies, don't take any chances!.
