SPRINGFIELD, Mo. | A section of Interstate 44 in southwest Missouri was closed for several hours after a tractor-trailer crashed and spilled its load, creating a giant slick of mayonnaise.

Springfield police closed the eastbound lanes of the interstate near U.S. 65 for several hours Saturday night as crews cleaned up debris including about 40,000 pounds of mayonnaise.

Lt. Scott Leven told The Springfield News Leader that the truck driver lost control, taking the rig through a cable guard and into the median.

He said walking on the spilled mayo was like walking on ice.

No injuries were reported, and other vehicles were re-routed before the cleanup was completed.

Has the EPA declared spilled mayo to be a toxic material or is that just spilled milk?

(That’s NOT a very sexy picture of Megyn. Try again.)

Spilled egg actually. The mayo plant receives eggs in 5,000 gallon tanker loads

I witnessed such a spill and it was a mess beyond measure. The truck was pulling away from the dock to close the doors and an uneven surface bump caused many many cases to spill out on the dock and pavement and make a terrible mess.

The other ingredient is oil and the mess is slick beyond measure

Where's James Carville?

Didn't he just become a spokesmodel for Miracle Whip?

Not at all. I think she’s very pretty, and uber-smart - as are ALL of us ‘ConservaBabes’. :)

She looks like she’s trying too hard in that shot. Sexy should be completely natural...

I was just thinking the same thing. ~Mine was for hard salami, and some pepperocini and olives to go on the sub.
