We just want to know your most hilarious, most “womp womp”, or most catastrophic food-related misfortune that transpired in a car? Did it result in you keeping your local carpet shampooer in business for another year, or were you able to handle it with a little elbow grease and a wet vacuum?
My worst in-car food disaster was pretty benign thankfully, but I used to do PR, and I managed a small press fleet. We had one car that reeked and we could not find the culprit until we checked the trunk and a stinky journalist had spilled milk in the trunk and did not clean up thoroughly so the milk went sour in the hot LA sun. We had to get the trunk lining replaced because the smell was so unbearable.
