Butter and jam usually conjures up images of warm toast, but on an Indianapolis highway today it meant a huge slippery mess that closed part of busy highway during the morning rush hour.

A dairy truck crashed overnight on Interstate 465 and spilled over 45,000 pounds of butter, margarine and whipped cream.

"Our preliminary conclusion is that the truck driver fell asleep while driving, hit a barrier, and crashed at around 3:30 a.m.," Capt. David Dursten, spokesman for the Indiana State Police told ABC News.

Pretty slick.

[Lurkina.n.Learnin]

They sure slathered it on didn’t they?

I never heard of jam made out of butter, I always thought jam was made out of fruit.

[Blood of Tyrants]

I didn’t know you could make jam out of butter.

There is probably a “Little Black Sambo” and the Tigers joke in their somewhere.

Huge Butt? Oh, nothing to do with the White House.

[Lurkina.n.Learnin]

And why was a dairy truck carrying margerine?

[Fast Moving Angel]

But then what about apple butter? ;-)

[nickcarraway]

I thought jam was made of cars.

The driver just prevented hundreds of Americans from ingesting GMO laden dairy products. . .and if margarine was aboard that was a double prevention. . .especially if it contained canola oil.

It got worse when the oregano truck, the parmesan cheese truck, and Newman all happened by at the same time.

[GeronL]
