Stench of 20 Tons of Spilled Tofu Hits Missouri Town ‘Like a Brick Wall’
A truck careened into a ravine in Jerome, Mo., leaving the tofu to stew for weeks. “It was worse than a landfill on a hot July day,” said the general manager of a towing company.

The tofu and the truck languished in the ravine for three weeks while the private towing companies that had been hired to clean up the mess tried to confirm that the trucking company had enough insurance to pay for the job.

As a result, 20 tons of tofu “sat out there in the heat and cold for three weeks, just stewing,” Chief Williams said, adding that when drivers had to slow down at the highway exit near the crash site, the smell “hit you like a brick wall.”

“It was like a dead animal, but worse,” he said. “It’s probably one of the worst smells I’ve smelled in my life, and I’ve smelled some nasty stuff.”
