After a recent posting on the listserv, I went to the McCormick's company
website for information about caraway seeds. The web address I found is:
_http://www.mccormick.com/content.cfm?id=8213_
(http://www.mccormick.com/content.cfm?id=8213)

According to them, caraway seeds are the dried fruit of the herb Carum
carvi. They do not come from rye. They are often used to flavor rye breads.

I then went to the USDA website. Carum carvi are from the dicot group,
family apiaceae. Wheat, barley and rye are in the moncot group, from the  family
poaceae.

I don't think we need to worry about the seeds.
