Police say the driver lost control of the semi-truck and after the truck overturned, the filling spilled out.
This truck driver probably didn't relish this situation — an overturned semi-truck spilled 15,000 pounds of hot dog filler onto the roadway in Pennsylvania, according to authorities.
According to a police report, the Freightliner was speeding down Interstate 70 in Rostraver when the driver began to lose control.
The truck then left the roadway and drove into the soft shoulder. As this happened, the cab of the truck was impaled by several trees, which helped stop the truck.
Police say that because of the "violent stopping motion" of the cab, the meat product inside the cab dislodged and spilled on the road. In all, about 15,000 pounds of hot dog filler catapulted onto the road.

Police say after further investigation into the crash officers found multiple brakes on the truck were "completely inoperable," which resulted in the truck being unable to stop.

Yummmm...
Looks delicious 😋.
Just a bit of grilling and some mustard! 😜
Look at that disgusting blob of soiled pink slime!
Bring some Hungry-Hungry Hippos over to it.
Might want to schedule more frequent brake maintenance too.

Cheesey.
They ain’t topping that one!
Seems chili in here.
Can you imagine the smell after a few hours of that sitting there, not to mention the number of flies that likely started swarming there shortly later...
yuck.
Should have crashed in Phoenixville.
so dogs aren’t stuffed where they’re ground... wut?
“..the crash officers found multiple brakes on the truck were “completely inoperable”.
Tried as they might, the broken brakes were ineffective despite all the effort they and the driver mustered.
Just scrape it off and use it. Ain’t any worse than what they intentionally put in it.
7,5 tons of filler was in the cab? Do they not know what a truck and trailer are?
Roadkill to roadkill,
And dust to dust.
That’ll buff right out.
Author of article was in a hurry to publish the story so they could be the first to report it.
Kinda like FR.
😉
Sooner or later bad food puns will ketchup with you.
He was running late so needed to ketchup.

I guess hotdog prices will double now.
