I never heard of it, but I've experimented with a lot of different
fillers for meatloaf and all of them turned out well. (rolled oats,
rye bread, poppy seed rolls, pumpernickel, rice, etc.).

I'd substitute equal amounts of crushed shredded wheat and mix it with
the liquid ingedients first for a softer meatloaf, or with the ground
meat for a drier loaf. Depending on how you like it, you might have
to add more liquid

BTW: If your recipe calls for ketchup, try tomato paste instead and
add you own seasonings: paprika, black pepper, basil, worchestershire
sauce.
