Preliminary laboratory findings released by the Georgia Department of Public Health have identified the food source responsible for last month's salmonella poisoning outbreak that sickened dozens and hospitalized five people who ate food catered for Toyo Tire employees.
These findings indicate that turkeys handled and catered by Angelo's New York Style Pizza & Bistro were the cause of the outbreak among the employees who took part in the meals Nov. 14-15, according to the Georgia Department of Public Health Northwest Health District. 
Hundreds of people became ill after eating a Thanksgiving dinner on November 14-15, catered by Angelo’s New York Style Pizza and Bistro. This pizza company served turkey and other Thanksgiving foods last Wednesday to approximately 1800 people. The news media has reported that the company (caterers) has temporarily shut down during the investigation. The news came out when more than 500 employees out of the 1800 that were hosted had checked in at doctor’s offices for illnesses, received immediate medical help, and got urgent care at hospitals since Wednesday.
