Dec. 22 (UPI) -- Transportation officials in Maryland said a tractor-trailer hauling 20,000 pounds of cheese balls overturned on the interstate, spilling snacks across lanes of traffic.
The Maryland Department of Transportation's State Highway Administration said the tractor-trailer was involved in a crash at 2:23 p.m. on Interstate 495 in Montgomery County and spilled cheese ball snacks into the roadway.
The crash also resulted in a fuel spill and a sand truck was called to the scene to assist with clean-up efforts.
No injuries were reported from the incident. Two lanes of traffic were closed temporarily during the clean-up operation.

a tractor-trailer overturned on Interstate 495... and spilled some of its load of 20,000 pounds of cheese balls onto the roadway. Double prizes? There was a similar story out of Queens:
I thought it was popcorn, but it looks more like cheese balls.

hmmm...I believe most traditional recipes for onion soup call for gruyere. But to each his own.
