Ketchup Power and the Starship Meatloaf Overviews
The crew of the Starship Meatloaf travels from the year 6789 to the present in order to find the lost recipe for ketchup, the fuel of the future. As they move back in time, the crew members become kids. They enroll in an elementary school where they join a home ec class in hopes of making lots of ketchup-soaked meatloaves to fuel their spaceship back to the future. Standing in the way of their secret mission are Beula and Bertha Butterman, two evil lunchroom ladies with an appetite for meatloaf and suspicions about what the new kids in the school are up to. This is one of two Starship Meatloaf titles. Both will be published in October 1997.

Ketchup Power and the Starship Meatloaf CustomerReview
Ketchup Power and the Starship Meatloaf is a very funny, witty, intelligently-written story comparable to Captain Underpants in its humor, although it is considerably longer and has no illustrations.
In the far future, ketchup has become the primary fuel source, leading to the invention of synthochup, a syntethic ketchup fuel that eventually destroys the devices using it for power. People forgot how to make real ketchup, and now they need it desperately. So, four people decide to use the Starship Meatloaf to travel back several thousand years to our time to get the recipe for "real true-red ketchup."
The problem is, due to the effects of time travel, every member of the Meatloaf crew has become a kid again. Now, stranded thousands of years back in time as children, the crew has to find the ketchup recipe and return home while hiding undercover as grade school students.
The length of the book and the lack of pictures might cause younger readers to shy away from this one, but older ones (about ten or eleven and up) will love it!
