Bay's Macho Meatloaf image

I grew up with a strong disdain for meatloaf; I went to a friend's house and had to eat an overcooked chunk of hamburger with tomato ketchup on top...i was not impressed. But I was polite...i ate it, and it took me ten years to really want to give it a second chance. My wife makes a great Italian meatloaf... My father-in-law...
