Chicagoist has some kind of obsession with trucks spilling things on the road. . milk.. pigs.. whatever. The stranger the better. So we were kind of giddy this morning when we heard that a truck on I-55 spilled vegetable oil all over the friggin' place.
The truck rolled over this morning at about 4:30am near the Weber Road interchange on the border of the southwest suburbs of Bolingbrook & Romeoville. It was hauling vegetable oil and the accident caused it to spill all over the road and hold up traffic for miles. The twist in this spill is that the truck driver has disappeared. Police say they con't know the cause of the crash and that they are lookin' for the driver.
The good news about this oil spill is that unlike this other famous oil spill, no animals were hurt in this morning's accident.

Stephen, why did the chicken cross the road??
She wanted to lay it on the line.
And, scene.
No animals were killed but I bet lots were deep fried.
Wow... The only thing that could've made it better, is if a truck carrying chickens and potatoes crashed on the scene... Fried Chicken and French Fries for everyone!
OHH the Canola!
Blame Canola! Blame Canada!
