The best of breakfast

Occasionally grabbing breakfast on the run is one of those inevitabilities. After all, who hasn't overslept or woken up only to find that the last bit of cereal milk has been usurped by the last breakfaster? And grabbing breakfast on the go is better than not having any at all.

Yahoo health recently rated the top breakfast choices. Here are some picks:

  • McDonald's: Fruit n' Yogurt Parfait -- 160 cal, 2 g fat
  • Starbucks: Spinach, roasted tomato, feta and egg wrap -- 240 cal, 10 g of fat (but lots of protein and fiber)
  • Jamba Juice: Jamba Light smoothie -- 150-160 cal, 0 g of fat
  • Dunkin' Donuts: Four powdered donut holes -- 260 cal, 15 g of fat
  • Burger King: Nothing. Their food still has trans fats.

Jamba Juice customers in California possibly exposed to hepatitis A

If you're a regular Jamja Juice customer in Southern California, be advised that you could have been exposed to hepatitis A from one of the company's San Jose locations.

It's estimated that about 4,000 customers of the juice chain could have been exposed due to a worker at a San Jose location having the infection while working at the store and providing products to customers. It's hard to say what the risk level is, though, since hepatitis A generally is spread through oral and fecal contact.

The store in question was disinfected and cleaned, but there may have been some transfer previous to that according to authorities. Of course, a corporate spokesperson used the incident to serve up some decent PR by saying, "We acted quickly to resolve this situation and the store is now open, 100 percent safe and we look forward to getting back to what we do best, serving up liquid sunshine." Meh.

Jamba Juice warns of deadly bacteria in strawberry smoothies

The trendy juice bar/restaurant Jamba Juice Company is warning consumers in the Southwest today that some of its smoothies that contained strawberries may have been contaminated with a potentially deadly bacterium. Uh-oh -- this is not good news.

Jamba Juice issued the warning with the FDA yesterday, and it applies to smoothies sold at Jamba Juice stores in Arizona, southern Nevada and Southern California from November 25 to December 1, although Jamba Juice said that it had not received any reports of confirmed illnesses. Being a customer of Jamba Juice every once in a while, this was quite a concern for a while today.

Jamba Juice issued the warning yesterday after one of its suppliers said frozen strawberries from one of its facilities tested positive for Listeriamonocytogenes (commonly known as "listeria") -- which is a cause of food poisoning and can even cause fatal infections in young children, the elderly and others with weak immune systems.
