It was a messy morning on Interstate 287 Friday as two accidents, including one involving a truck carrying deli meat and another truck carrying bread, snarled traffic on both the northbound and southbound sides in Central Jersey. At 3:46 a.m., State Police received a report of an accident on southbound Interstate 287 involving two tractor-trailers in South Plainfield at mile post five, said Capt. Stephen Jones, a State Police spokesman. One was carrying bread while the other was hauling deli meat.

Where is that damn beer truck???

[exDemMom]

I guess the truck with the condiments didn’t get the message when to show up.

[PROCON]

Did the trucks get sandwiched together?

[wrench]

Several weeks ago a beer truck and a Frito Lay truck collided and spilled their contents. It took hours (hic) to clean the mess up, and longer to get the responders to leave the scene.

[Larry Lucido]

It couldn’t catch-up.

Were there any heroes?

[Ken H]

Many drivers got sandwiched in between the stalled lanes.

Good one!

[Ken H]

You were first.

[Larry Lucido]

It was a No-Pass-Trami zone.

Deli meats? In New Jersey, we say cold cuts. What's with this "deli meat" business?

Is this going to be a re-hash of the Pork Roll vs. Taylor Ham divide?

[Larry Lucido]

That’s enough rye humor.

[BenLurkin]

They’re in a pickle.

You should relish the thought that incompetent drivers seldom cut the mustard but they often get themselves in a pickle, lettuce be clear on that.

story is full of baloney. I relish it.

"Excuse me sir. Would you happen to have any Grey Poupon?"

[Fresh Wind]

Life is like eating a poupon sandwich.

The more bread you have, the less poupon you have to eat.

This story is just eating on me! Makes me want to barf!
