Meatloaf is great but you can't just make a meatloaf by dumping stuff
into the hamburger. It's important that you have clear in your mind what
you want it to turn out like. I like my meatloaf to be tender and a
little juicy so I'll add breadcrumbs and liquids to the mix. By varying
these two components, you'll come up with a dish that has whatever
texture you want. Then you can worry about all the other stuff. I like
to add a can of corn to mine but that's just whacky to most folks. I
always add MSG but some folks would find this unacceptable.
