Mayonnaise on the Road

9 Oct 2010 - Since the movie "Pulp Fiction" the world knows that the Dutch love their fries with mayonnaise. A few years ago I found out - to my big surprise - that the Japanese also enjoy their bit of mayonnaise. However, sometimes the mayonnaise distribution does not go as planned. A load of mayonnaise recently fell of the back of a lorry in japan and caused an eight-vehicle pile up, leaving three people injured. The accident, involving a motorcycle, two trucks and five cars, closed parts of a two lane highway for five hours in Hyogo prefecture, a police spokesperson said. Luckily nobody was seriously injured. The spokesperson explained  "What probably happened is that cars travellling behind the truck squashed the bottles of mayonnaise, spreading it on the road. The ingredients of eggs, vinegar and oil mean it is more slick and dangerous than snow."
