In all honesty, I think the best thing about growing up and becoming an
adult able to cook for myself was no more meatloaf OR sloppy joes! Horrid,
horrid food. UGH. My mom would make me sit and sit and sit at the table
until I ate that stuff. It was a battle of wills.

Well, that would kill it for me, too, but I love both meatloaf and
sloppy joes. Since reading this thread, I developed a craving for
sloppy joes and made them for dinner tonight. Delish!

Well, there's good meatloaf and bad meatloaf. Most of it's
bad so I usually avoid any that's made by someone else.
My aunt uses Ann Landers' (the advice columnist) recipe that
was published in the paper once. It's an excellent recipe.
I use that one and love it. However most other meatloaf
ranges from bad to worst.

As for sloppy joes, I guess it depends on how they're
made. I've always liked them, although some are better than
others. I make them with bbq sauce when I make them myself
and they're even better that way. Damn, now I'm hungry for
sloppy joes!
