Can you get a smoothie at the mall?

OK this is probably a silly question.. But I know I was told to avoid ice cream from fast food places like McDonald's and Sonic because the machines are not very clean and could have harmful bacteria, but what about getting a fruit smoothie?? Going to the mall tomorrow and I'm craving a smoothie from the smoothie shop there! But just curious if it's the same rules as ice cream with it coming from a machine? Any advice is appreciated! Thanks :) (FTM 39 weeks)

I've never even heard of not being able to get ice cream from places like that or we shouldn't. Lol
I say go for it. I doubt it'll harm you or baby.
