The USDA said the Marshall, Mo., plant made Banquet and generic store brand pot pies. All of the pot pies made at the plant in question have "P-9" printed on the side of the box as part of a code above the use-by date.

ConAgra spokeswoman Stephanie Childs said she didn't know how many people worked at the Marshall plant or what would happen to them during the shut down.

Federal officials said consumers shouldn't throw away or eat the chicken or turkey pot pies until the Food Safety and Inspection Service can determine the source of the salmonella contamination and verify proper cooking instructions.

ConAgra is offering consumers refunds, but no recall of pot pies was being planned Tuesday.

We will probably see more of this type of problems with our food
Alot of the ingredients our coming from foreign countries especially China. The final product is made here in the US.

Here is a very interesting article

Online NewsHour: Conversation | FDA Official on Food Safety | June 8, 2007 | PBS

"The problem is, in the last few years, the ingredient manufacturing has moved to other countries. Their labor's cheaper, materials are cheaper. So all of these sources, the flavorings, the flavor enhancers, preservatives and leavening agents and other things are continuing to come from less developed countries overseas"

I am not saying that is the problem with the pot pies..but it does make you wonder.
