The City of Monroe, N.C., said hams and other assorted meats were spilled onto Highway 74 by an overturned tractor-trailer.
Dec. 13 (UPI) -- A collision on a North Carolina highway caused a tractor-trailer to overturn and spill its load of hams and other various meats into the roadway.
The City of Monroe said in a statement that the truck, carrying a load of meats, was traveling on Highway 74 when it ran a red light at the intersection with John Moore Road just before 7 a.m. Monday.
The truck collided with another vehicle and overturned in a parking lot just off the highway. The overturned truck spilled its load, which included Smithfield hams and other various meats.
The drivers of both vehicles were treated for minor injuries and the truck driver was cited for running a red light.
Traffic was diverted for a few hours Monday morning while crews cleared the meats from the scene.
So if my Hardee’s Hot Ham and Cheese tastes like asphalt next week, there might be a reason?
The vegans have started their war on us.
Route 74 charcuterie all you can eat?
Why do these things never happen when I’m around?.....................
Was it prepackaged road kill?
“So if my Hardee’s Hot Ham and Cheese tastes like asphalt next week...”
Wait, it normally doesn’t?
Nope, just Road Spill..................
Smithfield is owned by the Chinese.
George Conway and Jerry Nadler are on their way to help “clean” up the mess, yeah clean
I’m glad I wasn’t trying to go to Monroe on Monday.
😉
You know what they say —
When there’s a spill there’s a way!
It be like going back in time to discover the missing lyrics.
If it's Monday, this must be Monroe
If it's Tuesday, this must be Belgium
If it's Wednesday, this must be Rome
If it's Thursday, this must be Montreaux
I feel I never wanna go home..
Sounds like the SPCA might be getting donations!
NOOooo...
Not the pork products...
oh the hu-ham-ity!
Check you local grocery store’s hams for skid marks.................
And there’s hamburger all over the highway in Mystic, Connecticut.
