Oh, Pulleeze... HFCS? Bryan is all we can handle at the moment.
It's meatloaf, which is cheap and fast, not pretentious and fussy. In
any case, Ophelia doesn't like anything with any amount of heat, so
she won't buy horseradish and probably wouldn't like cocktail sauce
anyway. Chili sauce, Marinara sauce, tomato ketchup, or plain old
tomato sauce is more her speed.

Speaking of tomato ketchup... have you ever run across the Sir
Kensington brand? OMG - it's expensive, but it's ketchup nirvana.
