Black gunk in Nutribullet

In an attempt to be healthier for my baby I've been juicing these past few months. Well this morning as I was cleaning my Nutribullet (and mind you, the instrux say to just rinse out the cup and the blades) I noticed some blueberry seeds stuck in the base so I removed the gasket and to my horror noticed some black gunk underneath. Anyone know what I'm talking about? Do you think I've been harming my baby all this time?

Thanks! Luckily no upset tummy and definitely making it a point to clean more throughly. Spoke w/another friend that uses the Nutribullet and he didn't know either that it had to be cleaned under the gasket b/c the instrux state NOT to remove it but better safe than sorry. As far as juicing...I have 1 first thing in the AM to ease my hunger then have breakfast as soon as I get into the office, a snack, lunch, a snack and dinner. Not trying to starve myself...just another way to get in the daily dose of fruits and veggies!
