An unexpected delivery of frozen pizza temporarily shut down an Arkansas highway Wednesday. Pizza pies flew through the sky when a semi-truck carrying DiGiorno and Tombstone pizzas brushed up against a bridge support, busting open its trailer and sending its precious cargo out onto Interstate 30.

The mess of sauce, cheese, and pepperoni made for a lengthy clean-up process. The Associated Press reported that just south of Little Rock, "the westbound section of I-30 was closed for four hours" and the eastbound section was closed "for an hour" while crews cleared the road.
