VIDEO AT LINK...............

Oct. 3 (UPI) -- Traffic was being diverted from an Ontario highway Tuesday due to a truck that rolled over and spilled its load of celery across the roadway.

Ontario Provincial Police said the truck overturned on Highway 400, just south of Highway 9 in the Aurora area, and covered the roadway in celery stalks.

"So much celery," OPP tweeted along with a video of the vegetable-covered highway.

Traffic was being diverted onto Highway 9 while crews worked to clean up the mess, a process that was expected to take several hours. Police urged stuck drivers to be patient.

No injuries were reported from the crash or celery spill.

When people ask me, "What do you read on that FreeRepublic site?", I answer them: "News about National Phone Alerts, World War III, and Celery Spills."

That is indeed what I say. And then they don't ask again.
