The heat was Frank-ly unbearable.
A semi-truck leaked a whopping 40,000 pounds of sticky Frank’s RedHot sauce onto an Ohio highway amid a brutal heatwave last week.
The truck carrying loads of the popular condiment began leaking while traveling north on Interstate 71 in Delaware County on Thursday, leaving a trail of the spicy sauce on the roadbed before its driver realized, the Columbus Dispatch reported.
The driver eventually pulled into a truck stop as fire crews followed the trail of the bright-red mystery fluid to find its source.
“Our crews were out on the highway trying to track it down and actually were able to follow the trail to the Pilot,” Berkshire, Sunbury, Trenton & Galena Fire Chief Chris Kovach told the outlet.
After learning that the substance was Frank’s RedHot sauce, fire crews were forced to call in the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency, according to local reports.
Due to the hot sauce’s acidity, flushing it into waterways could pose environmental risks. Instead, crews had to use containment protocols and hazmat materials to stop it from spilling into drains.
Kovach told the outlet that the trucking company will have to arrange for a cleanup company to properly address the spill.

My mother in law lost smell and taste they said was caused by sinus problems. That was a few years ago when she was 84.
Thnaks for the reminder. I grew up on the original Tobasco. I always have 8 or 10 different hot sauces on hand as I get them as gifts as well as buy my own. Daughter got me a four pack from the cable TV show Hot Ones and the hottest one called The Last Dab will ruin your food in a hurry if you aren’t careful. A million scovilles, I think.
For Texas Pete’s sakes?
Age probably.
I used to eat double pepperoni and double jalapeños pizza in college.
I can’t even look at a jalapeño now.
