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

CENTRE COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA, JUL 2 – Three tractor-trailers collided, spilling hundreds of boxes of mozzarella cheese and closing I-80 eastbound for about five hours for cleanup, officials said.

  • 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.
