A truck carrying Kraft Dinner mix overturned in Quebec, coating a highway ramp in bright orange cheese powder and serving up a major traffic jam.
The crash happened at around 7am on August 28 after the driver crossed Montreal’s Samuel-De Champlain Bridge and took the exit toward Route 132 in Brossard.
According to CTV News, the truck veered off the exit and rolled onto its side, spilling its powdered mac and cheese mix across the roadway.
French-language outlet TVA Nouvelles reported that the driver appeared to misjudge the curve before the truck tipped over.
The driver was transported to hospital with injuries that were not considered life-threatening.
Kraft Dinner spill forces complete ramp closure
The entire highway was not closed, but the eastbound Autoroute 10 access ramp to Route 132 was completely shut while crews removed the truck and tackled the seriously cheesy cleanup.
Quebec 511 confirmed that the ramp was closed for an undetermined period following the truck accident. The spill also caused significant congestion for motorists heading from Montreal toward the South Shore.
Photos from the scene showed the overturned truck surrounded by a thick layer of orange powder. Thankfully for cleanup crews, there were no cooked noodles added to the mix.
Remarkably, this was not the first truck to roll over on the same ramp this summer. TVA reported that another trucker overturned there on July 29 after entering the curve too quickly. That driver escaped with minor injuries.
The Kraft Dinner disaster comes after a Pennsylvania highway became a mozzarella mess when another truck crash covered the road in boxes of shredded cheese.
More recently, a truck carrying over 20 tons of squid overturned and spilled its load across a Rhode Island road, forcing an extended closure while crews cleared the decidedly less appetizing mess.
