Sure. Sugar allergy is a thing too.

If you give me six lines written in a material safety datasheet for the most chemically inert of materials, I will find something in them that could cause some human, in some situation, to die.



After a little bit of googling, it seems that sugar allergy from ingestion doesn't exist. Intolerance is not allergies.

I did find that there's apparently one case of anaphylaxis caused by injection of fructose, though it wasn't the normal reaction referred to as allergies.
