MOZZARELLA MISHAP | Tractor-Trailer Crash Leaves Shredded Cheese Scattered Across Interstate

Three tractor-trailers collided around 5 a.m. on Interstate 80 eastbound in Centre County, Pennsylvania, on Wednesday, spilling shredded mozzarella cheese across the road.
The crash involved a tractor-trailer carrying boxes of mozzarella cheese that ruptured, causing a multi-vehicle collision and resulting in a prolonged closure of the eastbound lanes near Exit 133 on Interstate 80.
All lanes blocked across a 200-yard debris field were cleared by emergency crews, who cleaned cheese off the roadway with no injuries or fuel leaks reported.
Fire officials confirmed the cheese was unrefrigerated for hours, deeming the load unsalvageable and stating it must be sent to a landfill.
Interstate 80 reopened after cleanup, while the cheese spill's unsalvageability indicates economic loss and emphasizes the impact of hazardous cargo accidents on transportation.
