Adding dried fruit to secondary. Do I need to worry about sulfates?

[QuercusMax]

I'm making Randy Mosher's Fruitcake Old Ale from Radical Brewing, and it's been about a week in primary so I need to start thinking about the fruit I'm going to add to it. I'm planning on doing a bunch of raisins, some figs, and some dried apples I have lying around that nobody seems to want to eat.

I got sulfate-free figs, because I was thinking it may be an issue, but I don't know whether the dried apples have sulfates or not, and the raisins I'll have to check on.

If I add fruit that contains sulfates/sulfites do I need to worry about it killing my yeast? Help!

Did you ever figure out a solution to your question? I have a similar question regarding dried blueberries for a blueberry ale. BTW--I'm in Stow, right around the corner from you.
