Throw down...

Bett: Doc says I'm okay. But i feel like i just threw
down with a carton of cloves.
Chloe: Well, i figured you'd be hungry, so, unfortunately,
it's meat-Loaf mondays, (the sold only meat that day?) but I did score you
some curly fries. French fries?

Thanks, Feebs11! Sorry but forgot to ask about the firts part:
But I feel like i just threw down with a carton of cloves.
She feels like someone has hit her head into trees?

A carton of cloves is 200 cigarettes with cloves in them. Anyone who smoked that much would probably feel nauseous and light-headed.

Threw down: To start a fight.

So, it sounds like a metaphor...to pick a fight with a carton of cigarettes...and lose.

Couple of thoughts, first meatloaf isn't leftover cooked meat ... it's like a loaf of bread made from (usually) ground beef, pork, and veal with eggs, bread crumbs and spices to hold it all together. Most people find it disgusting because it is impossible to tell what kind of meat has been used or the quality of it ... but my mother's is delicious
