Normally I wouldn't post this, but I remember visiting this chocolate factory in Smiths Falls Ontario when I was 9 years old. They walked us around huge tubs of molten chocolate and gave us all a tiny half-ounce bar at the end. The best field trip I ever had in school.

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency is continuing its investigation into a salmonella outbreak at a Hershey chocolate factory in Smiths Falls, Ont., officials said Tuesday.
"There's been no change since yesterday, the plant is still closed," said CFIA spokesman Garfield Balsom on Tuesday. "We have conducted a recall of the affected product as of early Sunday morning and the investigation is still ongoing."
The company, which employs 500 workers, shut down production and issued a recall of 25 products after a routine inspection inside the plant detected salmonella last Thursday. Company officials said they believe an ingredient from an outside supplier may have caused the contamination.
