It's almost like the Beef Crumble over mashed potatoes they used to
serve in grade school and high school. Anybody remember beef crumble?
It wan't meatloaf per se, just cooked ground beef, crumbled up w/
sauteed onion and celery, mixed w/ beef gravy, ladled over a scopp of
mashed potatoes. Served with white bread & butter and some kind of
veggie...corn? green beans? Everybody loathed it in grade school and
loved it in high school. But during grade school, it was always served
with peanut butter fingers for dessert, so everybody bought lunch that
day.

Puke is just as good a name as any, though!!
