> [@MissGypsy](#): > > I’ve started making meatloaf at least twice a week, because my SO loves it and he eats those horrible cold-meatloaf sandwiches the next day. I can barely stand to watch. Heck, I can barely eat the stuff when it’s fresh and hot, let alone cold. And no, I have no idea how he makes a sandwich from it, because it’s cold and nasty and turns my stomach to even look at it. > > And I ALWAYS get offered sex afterwards. After the original dinner, and again after the leftover one. Ya suppose my meatloaf is some sort of aphrodisiac? 😛 **Miss Gypsy,** it’s probably just your incomparable self that’s the aphrodisiac. If you don’t like your meatloaf, you can always tinker with the recipe. I’m considering posting my recipe over in Cafe Society. Not right now, though. Supper’s ready. 😛 ---

I’ve had meatloaf sandwiches, and I’ve had sex. Either I don’t know how to eat, or you don’t know how to screw. IMHO. 😃 ---

I’m partial to the fact that you can have a meatloaf sandwich at your desk at work in the middle of the day, and no one looks at you twice. Try having sex on your desk in the middle of the day and see what happens. ---

> [@](#): > > I’d rather have sex with a meatloaf sandwich. **Roland**? 😃 I hate cold meatloaf, but my local pub makes an awesome meatloaf sandwich–warm meatloaf (made with bbq sauce and bacon on the top, of course), grilled Walla Walla onions, melted Havarti, mayo, and lettuce & tomato. ---

Of course the obvious solution is right in front of our faces. Eat a meatloaf sandwich _while_ having sex. A multiple orgasm for men. ---

OK, all this talk about meatloaf has made me hungry. Someone share your recipe for meatloaf quick! It sounds like there are a lot of good recipes out there. I’ll post mine when I get home tonight (or possibly tomorrow, as I’m taking my kids to see Stomp! tonight) E3 ---

> [@Chefguy](#): > > Interesting that nobody has ventured an argument as to _why_ they think sex is better than a meatloaf sandwich. Unsubstantiated argument is just opinion, doncha know… Well, I’m no scientist, but I would venture that sex causes more pleasure center nerve firing than meat loaf sandwiches… O.K., all I need is some electrodes, a meat loaf sandwich and thou… ---

Okay then, how’s this? While a meatload sandwich is great, I much prefer giving a woman an earth-shattering orgasm. I just find it more satisfying. YMMV, of course. ---

I’d personally like to test this theory, but I’ve noticed a distinct lack of recipes here (Chefguy). ---
