Published: June 30, 2009
DANVILLE — Nestle officials are meeting with Danville workers to review the finding that a sample of raw cookie dough collected at the plant tested positive for E. coli.
Nestle spokeswoman Roz O’Hearn said the meetings Tuesday are to review the Food and Drug Ad-ministration’s investigation.
She says the side of the plant that made refrigerated cookie dough has been sanitized, and workers are putting equipment back together following the FDA’s inspection last week.
None of about 275 workers who made cookie dough has been laid off. O’Hearn says some are taking va-cation days, others are on unpaid leave, and some are working on the side of the plant that makes pasta products.
Danville had the state’s highest metropolitan unemployment rate in May at 13 percent.

We all figured you’d be licking your lips like a Cheshire Cat Laryans. However, maybe if you’ll go and read the next article, you’ll see that IT HASNT BEEN FOUND IN THE PLANT. They are looking at suppliers. So as much as you would probalby like to think toll house workers intentionally put something in the dough, they didnt. It was a suprise to everyone that it was found. And by the way… you did plenty of bad mouthing yourself. Infact, you started it…. and then you brought in your hatred of the company in general. Let me re-itterate the fact that everyone in this factory works hard to get out safe product and the fact that it was found astounded us all. but guess what, we’re still working, no-one has been laid off, nobody is gonna get laid off, and we’ll be producing cookie dough again before ya know it. To all nestle’s loyal customers, thanks for sticking by us and staying with us through this hard time!
Use common sense, cook all food throughly, and you have nothing to worry about. What part of “cookie dough must be cooked before eating” do people not understand? Common sense people, that is what should keep people from doing dumb things that hurts them. Look twice before you cross the street, don’t pass on a double yellow line, and don’t eat raw food, unless it states to do so on the package.
Well there you go. Sure looks like you’re guilty Nestle. Thanks for all the badmouthing, I really appreciated it.
