A devastating 1999 fire in a tunnel connecting France and Italy was also caused by a truck full of flour and margarine: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mont_Blanc_Tunnel_fire

A truck carrying 27 tons of Norwegian caramelized goat cheese caught fire in a tunnel in northern Norway in 2013; it burned for five days in part because the tunnel's liner was flammable...

Extensive repairs and upgrades were required -- it apparently took years before the tunnel was fully reopened to bidirectional traffic.

A pity a sugar and vanilla truck were also not involved.
