MEATLOAF.
There's just something wrong with that statement, wouldn't you agree?
It's meat... but it's a... *gulp* loaf?
Meat in loaf form?
Ew.
The only good things that come in loaf form are bread, and... men.
Man loaf? Does that work? Can it be used like beef cake?
And technically, meatloaf IS a beef cake. So those two could totally be interchangeable?
Not sure. I could have just said something incredibly offensive.
ANYWHOO.
Loaf.
So my mom decides to spice the already terrifying loaf of cow up today.
She goes all Italian on me.
She added tomatoes!! Flipping tomatoes and mozzarella cheeze!!!
Those tomatoes aim to misbehave.
Their shiny red little faces poked out from their spots nestled in that loaf and STARED at me.
I ate a quesadilla.
But I still was on clean the kitchen. So I had to wash the pans. ick.

Well, real tomatoes in meat loaf may be different but I really quite like a good meat loaf now and then. Ours mostly has crumbled bread, dried onion soup and ketchup and that's it. I don't think man loaf works if you want an opinion. It brings to mind a rather odd shaped man!
i agree with aunt Sherie...the only loaf man I can picture is a card board one.
I think you need to give the amazingly scrumptious Italian meatloaf another try Ali. You are just grossed out because it has the word loaf at the end of Italian. How can you go wrong with oodles of mozzarella, shredded Parmesan, and lots of Italian spices?
Your mom is right that Italian Meatloaf is AWESOME! It just makes my mouth water thinking about it. And I typically hate meatloaf. So suck it up and try it, don't just hate food just because it is not chicken nuggets or a ham slice like others I know.
All right, it's time that you youngsters heard it form the older generation. Meat loaf is marvelous! There is nothing more satisfying than meatloaf, a baked potato, or winter squash, green beans and applesauce on a cold winters night.
Your mom's Italian version is definitely delectable and a delicious upgrade on the loaf cuisine!
Give it a try Ali. Just close your eyes an taste it, you may even grow to love it.
I like meat loaf for several reasons.
1. Meat.
2. A whole "loaf" of it. Whether you think that word is pleasant or not, in this case it implies that there is a whole pan of beef ready to be devoured.

I'm on your side for this one. However, my diet consists of black beans, cheese and chicken nuggets. Do you really want to be associated with that? Obviously the meatloaf lovers out number the meatloaf dislikers. Are you ready for a life in the culinary shadows? It's cold and lonely here. So cold. So lonely. Honestly though, I'll take cold and lonely over eating meatloaf any day. It's not just the name that's off putting...it's also got something to do with the dull gray color and the fact that it's a heaping serving of seasoned hamburger molded into bread pan form.
I hate meatloaf. I dislike any kind of meat that's mixed together with something else. It's so hard to get down my throat.
Quite the controversy... :)
