As I sit and eat my meatloaf sandwich, I can only wonder how meatloaf ever got the bad rap. I love the stuff.

it's cuz only poor families that couldn't afford real slabs of beef ate it.

frankly, it tastes good.

I thought you were talking about the band. The sandwich thing had me going WTF for a minute.

becuase when i was little watching Family Matters, one of the kids didn't want to eat meatloaf and since i hadn't heard of it i figured they were right and it was nasty

A little broccoli & cheese baked in the center
Plenty of tomato paste slabbed around

I love meatloaf. The recipe my mom uses is the best ever (I think it was on the back of the Quaker Oats can at some point - may still be). As much as I love meatloaf, I think the next couple days when we have leftovers for meatloaf sandwiches is even better.

I thought you were talking about that horrible singer.

A good piece of meatloaf is heavenly. I think it got a bad rap from school lunches where the meatloaf was thrown together with whatever was left.

never had meatloaf sandwiches, but some just out of the oven w/ mashed potatos and lots of ketchup = VERY good.
