Domestic violence is never funny ~ so it must be my mood because I confess that this made me burst out laughing ~ Sooz

I'm having a hard time really believing that "assault" with a meatloaf is really something that requires police intervention. Food fight!!! Immature, sure, but if the meatloaf can be considered a weapon, maybe it was self defense to avoid eating it!

It could have been as hard as a rock. In which case, that would be assault with a deadly weapon.

You took the words right out of my mouth.

Here's the deadly weapon....

I would do anything for love
But I won't eat that!

i also laughed at an incident about a decade ago where a man was arrested after killing his wife for overcooking his ziti. i mean, such stuff is so absurd, that what can you do?

I can't even comment on that meatloaf case without going over the recipe she used. Exigent circumstances, anyone?

When you read something like this taken out of context, it's natural to laugh. But the truth is that humiliating a victim by throwing food at them, puoring food on them, or smashing food in their faces is a frequent occurrence in cases of domestic violence.

I dunno, I think she should have just thrown the mashed potatoes and gravy back at him, and they'd be done with it.
