I like meatloaf. Of course, it is made with ground beef, so it's less difficult just to make a hamburger, with swiss and mushrooms.
Anyway, you put a big clump of ground beef in a bowl.
Then you add the ingredients you want - an egg or two, bread crumbs, a McCormick envelope of meatloaf (don't buy the store brand as zim doesn't own stock in that)....blah blah.
Then you thoroughly wash your hands.
Why?
Oh, so you can get them all greasy mixing all that carp together.
I used to have a big mixer.
I was told we didn't need it.
OK, so you mush all that stuff up and make sure everything is mixed properly.
Then you have to squish it all together and fit it into a pan. You can have a big pan or a little pan.
You could also have a middle-sized pan.
So you stuff all that mixture into the pan and put it in the oven.
350/ish for an hour/ish.
YOU SPEND ALL OF THE TIME THAT THE MEATLOAF IS COOKING DOING WHAT?
WASHING YOUR HANDS, SCRUBBING YOUR HANDS, CLEANING YOUR FINGERNAILS.....THEN YOU START OVER AGAIN BECAUSE YOU CAN'T GET THAT GREASY MESS OFF OF YOUR HANDS.
Now, I am germaphobic. I don't have skin left on my hands. I especially avoid shopping carts, strange remote controls, phones and most other things.
The meatloaf is now ready. But you have eaten SIX cupcakes while waiting and you're not hungry anymore.
See why meatloaf is not worth it?
