Even though I hate peanuts and peanutbutter it’s still adamn shame you getting salmmonella in food that shouldn’t obtain the poison. That’s because they are making the food in the same factory with meat and shit. Cot Damn!! These situations happen when cheap as companies try to cut as much costs as possible and still produce more product. Eventually they effect their clients, employees or themselves(the themselves part doesn’t happen too often HA)! Peep the article. BLAMMMMM!!!
WASHINGTON — Federal agents on Monday raided a Georgia peanut processing plant linked to the nationwide salmonella outbreak that has prompted one of the largest product recalls in U.S. history.
The FBI executed search warrants at both the plant in Blakely, Ga., and at Peanut Corp. of America’s headquarters in Lynchburg, Va., according to a senior congressional aide with knowledge of the raids. The official spoke only on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak publicly on the matter.
The plant has been identified as the source of the salmonella that has sickened hundreds and killed as many as eight people.
Atlanta television station WSB’s cameras captured FBI agents entering the plant and leaving with boxes and other material.
Earlier Monday, Agent Gregory Jones in Atlanta said the FBI had joined the investigation into the outbreak. The FBI didn’t immediately return a message left seeking further comment on the raid Monday night.
The House Energy and Commerce investigations subcommittee, which also is investigating how tainted peanuts got into the food supply, has scheduled a hearing for Wednesday. The subcommittee, chaired by Rep. Bart Stupak, D-Mich., has called a meeting on Tuesday to issue a subpoena for company president Stewart Parnell, who has indicated he will not otherwise appear at Wednesday’s hearing, the congressional source said.
Monday’s searches come three days after Food and Drug Administration investigators said Peanut Corp. knowingly shipped salmonella-laced products from its Georgia plant after tests showed the products were contaminated. Federal law forbids producing or shipping foods under conditions that could make it harmful to consumers’ health.
The Justice Department has opened a criminal investigation and more than 1,550 products have been recalled.

NEW YORK — General Motors Co. said it would cut its global salaried workforce to about 63,000 from 73,000 during 2009 and impose pay cuts for the remainder of its salaried workforce.
The job cuts are the latest step the struggling automaker is taking to pare down its operations ahead of presenting a restructuring plan to the U.S. government on February 17.
“These difficult actions are necessitated by a severe drop in vehicle sales worldwide and by the need to restructure GM for long-term viability,” GM said in a release on its Web site.
In the United States, approximately 3,400 of GM’s 29,500 salaried employees will be cut.
The company announced a temporary pay cut for most of its U.S. salaried employees, beginning May 1, effective through the end of the year. Executive employees will have their base pay cut by 10 percent, with others seeing cuts of 3 percent to 7 percent.
