Something hard got in my smoothie

[Guest guest]

I thought the experienced folks on this board might be able to help me here -

this morning when blending up my smoothie I noticed the Vitamix making the

" crunchy up " noise (like the sound of it blending up something hard like the

almonds or ice I had in there) but it seemed to go on much longer than usual.

When I was drinkig the smoothie there were a few very small pieces, looked like

almonds with the pale color and spot of brown on the side, but hard as a rock!

I'm thinking possibly an orange seed or two, or a date pit got in there, but I

really thought they were all out. Any idea if the orange seed or date pit would

be that hard as a rock? Any danger to possibly having consumed any of them?

Thanks!

For reference the smoothie consisted of: banana, strawberries, orange slices,

bit of avocado, 2 dates, few almonds, flax seeds, water and soy milk.
