Apparently Toronto's highway's are thirsty and hungry. First the beer which apparently wasnt hard enough so some vodka was added.. but that only whetted the appetite so this morning 38,000 lbs of meat products was thrown into the mix.

They say bad things happen in threes – and that was certainly the case on G.T.A. highways as another tractor-trailer flipped over Thursday morning – the second of the day and the third overturned rig in less than 24 hours.
The latest accident occurred at approximately 11am Thursday on the ramp from the eastbound 401 to the northbound 427.
Two trucks were at the scene at one point, the flipped truck in front, and another transport behind it. It wasn’t certain whether the second rig was involved, or the driver just a witness.
For whatever reason it has since left the scene, and skid marks were plainly visible on the road. The tipped rig was apparently loaded with more than 24,000 kg of meat, including chuck, pastrami, and short ribs.
Hamilton drivers had their Thursday morning rush hour stalled by vodka – more accurately a pile of vodka bottles smashed on the pavement of Highway 403 when another tractor-trailer overturned.
No one was seriously injured in the spill, but the highway near the Q.E.W. remained closed as crews cleaned up the broken glass from the empty bottles. It appears the truck was the only vehicle involved.
