I wrote and asked the Zatarain company about their products and learned they are part of McCormick. I've included their response below for those of you like me who enjoy quick cajun foods.

Dear Ms. Hilliard:
Thank you for taking the time to contact us. We appreciate your interest
in our Zatarain's products and welcome the opportunity to be of assistance
to you.
We are aware of special allergies and intolerances to certain ingredients
such as the following:
Peanuts Fish Soy proteins Sulfites
Tree nuts Eggs Wheat proteins Yellow No. 5 & 6
Shellfish Milk Red Pepper
As a responsible food company, Zatarain's follows the U.S. Food Drug &
Cosmetic Act regulations to ensure consumer safety concerning food
allergens. We declare these ingredients on our label in the ingredient
statement. Federal regulations require us to list sulfites if they are
over 10 parts per million, so we use that as our label declaration limit.
Because we are constantly improving our products, we do not offer a list of
our products that do not currently contain glutens. We encourage you to
read the ingredient statement on your package at the time of purchase to
ensure accurate, up to date information.
In addition, we follow good manufacturing practices at our plants. Our
employees are trained in the importance of correct labeling and the
necessity of performing thorough equipment wash-downs to eliminate
cross-contact of ingredients.
Although we cannot guarantee our products to be 100% free of allergens not
listed on the label, we want you to know that we take this situation
seriously and have taken extra precautions to eliminate the possibility of
mislabeling or cross-contact.
We invite you to sign up from our website, www.zatarain.com, to receive our
online newsletter and be the first to know what's new on our site,
including insider cooking tips and more.
If we can be of further assistance, please call us at 1-877-837-3796,
Monday through Friday, 9:30AM to 5PM Eastern Time. If you wish to respond
to this note by e-mail, please include your name and e-mail address.
We hope to have the continued pleasure of serving you.
Sincerely,
Ann Hamilton
Consumer Affairs Specialist
