Great and tasty food but price to pay on health if consumed regularly
I buy this products to feed homeless people in Chicago. I used to cook for them but based on the requirement from local shelter I started buying instant packaged food. Before feeding these people I tried one of these. To my surprise it Taste pretty damn good but has strong preservative. There is always price to pay when human being are lazy. Hopefully I don't have to eat this in future. If you eat consistently you will damage your health no doubt on that. I can store few of them for emergency food. I can do similar food by freezing and eat everyday.I can grill or bake/fry chicken in bulk and freeze. Thaw whenever I want to eat with mashed potatoes and veggies . To make mashed potato I steam potato in microwave then mix butter and cream with few spoons of idaho flavored potato flakes. Taste awesome. steam few frozen vegetables in microwave. The whole process doesn't take more than 15 minutes and I enjoy with carb, protein and vegetables.

Not as Good as Homemade
OK! Let's be honest...if you are shopping for easy, ready to heat microwaveable meals, you shouldn't expect it to taste as good as homemade unless you like to be disappointed!! However, we bought these for in between meals for our teenaged son, who always seems to be hungry, or for those times when you need to eat but aren't starved or motivated to cook something from scratch.First of all, as I mentioned before, these are shelf stable and do not require refrigeration! Secondly, they are so easy to use and heat up quickly in the microwave (time will vary based upon the strength & power of your machine). There is a large ice-cream sized scoop of mashed potatoes and combined with the meatloaf sliced size with gravy, they are very filling meals. The meatloaf slice was fairly thick and textured to look just like a piece of homemade loaf. It tasted ok as long as you remember, it's not the same as Mom's!!

Good for a quick meal.
I love meatloaf and mashed potatoes. One minute in the microwave and they are ready to go. For added pleasure you can add a little butter. I usually have a vegetable handy to make it a complete meal. Buy it regularly.

Hormel Compleats Meatloaf & Gravy
This is a quick & easy small meal when you don't want to fix anything or don't feel like cooking. It's just okay as far as taste or quality goes, nothing special; but it is convenient & filling.

Good if you cook it long enough
Tasty but the 1 minute cook time doesn't get the food hot , I cooked for 1:45

This Meatloaf just isn't !
Okay, all else aside and with no filters on my thoughts, this particular Hormel meal is just one I will forever avoid.To be fully honest as well, I ordered two boxes of this flavor as well as six others and set them aside in our hurricane locker simply to have meals ready that are easy to prepare and don't require refrigerationWe all know up front that these aren't advertised as gourmet dishes so with that being said they're advantage is that they have a decent shelf life and don't take up that much room and are quick and easy to prepare and if need be can even be eating cold.I've tried many of their products over the years and to date I've never had one, until now, that I would simply rather go without a meal than to have to eat it.Now enter their meatloaf I'm with that I can honestly say that I will set these all the way in the back as I ordered a total of 14, and they would and or will be the last ones standing and I promise that I will do all I can to gift them away to others that don't have any provisions in their hurricane locker.Please make it be alive but I'd much rather someone else benefit from any nutritional value this particular meal May have.I honestly can't remember the last time I had one of their meatloaf dishes but I do not remember them being like this in that it tasted like a compressed slab of meat product that I honestly don't believe my dog would have eaten and are chosen over top of the canned food that we currently give him. And I thought was quickly put to the test and neither the cat nor the dog chose to eat the meatloaf from this package and opted instead to eat their canned wet food prior to and then just casually sniffed at it and licked I meatloaf well continuously giving us that why did you do this to me look on their face before walking away and leaving it in their dishNo, had to put this out and this out only then maybe it would have been a different story and they would have eaten it but I honestly didn't think that would have been fair to either of them.The other meals that Hormel have available are, simply put, best student or hiking and camping trips as well as filling avoid and your stomach quickly without any preparation and virtually no cleanup. For this purpose they are ideally suited and are comparable and taste and flavor to many of the MREs you'll find for sale these days.All in all the Hormel products are suitable for any of the above specified needs and uses, however this is the one meal package that I will never purchase again and cannot in good conscious recommend anyone else purchase either

quick effortless meal, good texture, not huge portion but doable, great for hiking, emergencies
Hormel Compleats have their place in my life. I dont rely on these for regular use, but boy do they come in handy for a quick light meal as is, or for use in emergency situations. Basically a meal, ready to eat. Eat it cold or heat it up. Of course heated up is preferred. I recommend trying different ones out. I like the Turkey and dressing one the most, but the meatloaf and mashed potatoes is pretty good. "Good" is a funny descriptor here. We're not talking gourmet. It is shelf stable food. So it is good as far as all that goes. Also, not big portions. If you eat like a bird, this may be enough for you. If were eating it as a dinner, I would need a whole lot more. So plan on having sides with it add volume. Times I eat it as is is when dinner is a ways off, and I hadnt really eaten much during the day. I want something.. but I dont want snack food. This gives me that real food vibe, and doesnt take time or effort to prepare.Keep expectations low and you may find these to be rather delightful.I dont buy them all, and I dont necessarily like them all. But I have a few that I tend to crave, this being one of them. They have A LOT to choose from, in this listing and other listings. So as I wrote earlier, just give different ones a try as you may really dislike some and find that there are a few you really like.
