Around 150,000 GM fist-sized tomatoes were blamed for causing chaos and the closure of Interstate 80 in California. A river of ketchup caused hazardous conditions as drivers struggled to find enough cheese to combine with the tomatoes.

A spokesperson for the Federation of Organic Food Farmers (FOFF) told FNN:

This accident was exacerbated by the fact that these were giant GMO tomatoes destined for ketchup manufacturers. If it wasn't for GMO crops we wouldn't have got into this mess.

A nearby California Highway Patrolman (CHiP) named Ponch, pulled up and commented:

Hey man! You from England? Guess what? I say tow-may-tow and you say tow-mah-tow.

Yes. Quite. Charming fellows these Americans.
