You hit the nail on the head. In the 60's they had to make food fun. There was a huge grocery shopping shift and more people were buying the start of 'convenience foods' where things came out of cans, bottles or boxes, just add water and it was done. A lot less cooking from scratch. Excellent job on the Igloo. The onion granules may have soaked up a lot of the meatloaf liquids as it naturally rehydrated.

That looks quite fun, thanks! And, as a kid during the 60s, I suspect my mother would have scoffed at the idea of making this to "entice" her children to eat it. She was a good cook but us kids had basically one choice to make at meal times: eat or not. I am tempted to make this for myself but I would likely change the recipe slightly. For a start, I'd want to use fresh minced onions. And rather more pepper. It did look a bit dry. So to counter that I think and egg in the mix before baking would help. As well as cooking it to temperature rather than to time. I suppose you could make a few black olive penguins to place around it even though that would be geographically incorrect... Still, thanks as ever for sharing your adventures with us!

Hi guys, I lived through the 60s, ages 8-18, in the US. I never saw one of these igloos. I started cooking myself age 13, but I was using the Joy of Cooking (Irma rombauer) and Julia Child on TV (french cooking). My mom wasn't an adventurous cook. We had the same rotation of dishes. Which is probably why I rebelled hahaha. a meatloaf with no eggs is inevitably going to be dry. Thanks for this stroll down someone else's memory lane. Jim Oaxaca Mexico (retired)

you could up date this by making it the Skywalker homestead on Tatooine from Star Wars. make the igloo but don't put the blockwork markings into the mash. then instead on putting the cheese on the top, melt cheese into a pan big enough to use as a base to put the igloo on when cooled. sorry Barry, I know you haven't a clue about what I have just described. but I am sure Stuart will confirm it's in the movie.

Phoebe might eat the mashed potatoes it if you made it with cream of coconut so that you're not using real milk. Coconut oil blended with a tablespoon of olive oil would make a decent butter substitute. Throw some nice herbs in it and it would be good. Cheese on the side for the rest of the family. Also check into nutritional yeast for her to use as a cheese substitute.

1. Igloos are from the Arctic, not Antarctica. 2. To solve the dryness, you might make a milk gravy. 3. Make an island of mash and set the igloo on top and then fill the tray with the gravy to make it look like an icy sea. Carve vegetables into sea lions, polar bears, people, whales, etc . (not any penguins they are from Antarctica) to populate a diarama. When serving a slice just spoon gravy over the slice. A lot of work, but could be fun.😅

Unfortunately dry overcooked meat was a staple in our house growing up in the 60s/70s which is why any meat went between two slices of bread and butter to make it edible. And if it was a very dried out piece of meat, you just added more butter to the bread to help it slide down. My mother isn't a fan of meat and even to this day she always overcooks it.
