The OPs' question, did cause remembrance of a funny story, an old lady at a bar, told me & one of my friends, once...
"The hubby loved her meatloaf, but he was pretty cantankerous & gave her issuance at everything.
well, one evening she had about enough, so when he demanded she make him a meat loaf, she obliged as was the norm.
She did divulge one secret, though.
She told us the main ingredient was "Skippy dog food"!"
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA, me & her (my friend, both of us half crocked) never laughed so hard on our lives.
She said, "Yep, I made his meatloaf with Skippy dog food! He said it was the BEST meatloaf, he EVER had!"
Bwahahahahaha, that was over 30 yrs ago, and we still laugh and tease about whether,
we'll need to break out the "Skippy dog food" for supper....
I think it may have brought Peace to that old ladys' household, for a time....
