Well, you were. We just don't like to think about the fact that since our life expectancy was skewed so far down because of both infant mortality, and childhood injury or diseases prior to modern medicine extending the average lifespan by reducing mother, infant, and child mortality, and there y increasing our overall lifespan, that we frequently forget that most animals would have similar life expectancy ratios, if not lower, without our assistance.
Most children die in nature. That's why our life expectancy 5000 years ago averaged out to 35, but if you lived to 20, you could easily expect to live into your 70s to 90s in many cases.
Extrapolated out to animals that have no concept of first aid or medicine in general, and you have a hell of a lot of lambs that just kinda died on the shepard, for no reason from their perspective.
I was just thinking, it would be better if the potato “icing” was thicker and the meatloaf “cake” thinner, which is then even closer to Shepherd’s pie.
You kids are too young to remember the horror that was the week of green and purple ketchup. I never want to see a pile of green hotdog vomit that size, or any other size for that matter, ever again.
This is what happens when you make cakes that look like everything: everything has to try to look like cake because it cannot look like itself anymore, because then it might be cake.

Shepard's Pie... You've made a variation on Shepherd's Pie.
Shepherd's Cake, naturally.
Cottage pie, real shepherds has lamb!
"But if you're making shepherd's pie with lamb, were you being a good shepherd? I don't think so!"

Yet Another Stupid Contraction
(Yes I know, it’s an acronym not a contraction, so it should be YASA. But now it’s a backcronym, so it should be YASB.)
Fair point.

And please use corn, peas, carrots, and diced bell peppers for decoration!
I bet it’s delicious but your brain is in full panic because the taste doesn’t match your expectations and your brain think it’s being poisoned.

This was my first, and only, experience with poi. My brain and eyes said, "chocolate pudding." My tongue reported way too much salt.
If it's good meatloaf, I would totally eat this.
Oh and tell Barb her meatloaf is fucked!
Mafuckas with guts like that, ain't off the cheeseburgers.
Mafuckas with guts like that definitely are on the cheeseburgers, dawg.
Cottage pie, look for a recipe you might like
Wouldn't the smell give it away? Frosting and cake smells very different than mashed potatoes and cheese
Might be covid. Better get tested!
Plausible if cold.
This is my final verdict and I will not budge.

Hmmm.. go on...
My cakes are lies and my lies are handwritten on cakes... Poker night is very filling and unprofitable for me now.
Mind = caked
The Cake becomes reality, the cake is true. Cakes lose their value of eating and become only a value for exchange

Cursed shepherd's pie

No it doesn't it looks dry and unseasoned as fuck
Everything is cake except cake.
Everything is about cake… except cake. Cake is about power.

The Aperture Science Weighted Companion Cube tried to warn us, but we didn't listen.
I’m making a note here. Huge success.
That's real ass American Cheddar too! Not Kraft Singles!
So not everything is cake, after all?
meatloaf is a cake.
OH MY GOOOD!!
Everything BUT the cake.
Finally some piece of mind
1 please.
This is the reason why we can't have nice things. Still, I bet this tastes good.
“cheese”
American Cheese is real cheese
