Yeah, that sounds like a lot of onion. I usually use only 1-1/2 pounds
of ground beef and one good sized onion.

Cocktail sauce could work, but that could get pricey. I used horse
radish in the meat loaf and ketchup, plus ketchup on top. I also
usually have some ketchup as a condiment. It is one of the few things
that I use ketchup for or with. Since I rarely have the others, like
toasted western sandwiches or macaroni and cheese, meat loaf accounts
for about 95% of my ketchup use.
