To each their own. I don't make meatloaf at all; neither DH nor
I really likes it. He makes meatballs, and we like them with a
fair amount of very coarse bread crumbs in.

I was struck by your comment elsewhere that all of the cabbage roll
recipes seemed bland.
1. Not all food needs to be highly flavored to be good.
2. It's central and eastern European food.
A certain amount of blandness just comes with the territory.
Now I'm going to get hammered by a bunch of Hungarians talking
about about hot paprika and whatnot.
