San Francisco beverage chain Jamba Juice said Tuesday it may have used contaminated strawberries late last month in several of its stores in Southern California, Arizona and Southern Nevada.

One of Jamba Juice's suppliers, Cleugh's Frozen Foods, notified the company last week that routine testing in a Salinas food processing center found that its frozen strawberries tested positive for Listeria monocytogenes, a potentially harmful bacteria. As of Tuesday, no illnesses have been reported as a result of drinking Jamba products.

Sadly, I fell victim to the Jamba Juice strawberries at Downtown Disney last week. It was on our last day at the park though, so at least that was good.
