[quote=Anonymous]I think it’s about setting this day aside, doing something different that causes you to stop and reflect on why it’s different. So missing a food that many families eat every day serves that purpose. And making it a relatively expensive food means that low income families can participate. But it’s just one category of food. There are lots of luxury foods that are still allowed. I have eaten cake on Friday during Lent, for example. You can also decide for yourself that seafood is a luxury to you and that you don’t want to eat it. The rule isn’t “eat fish” it’s “no meat”. We are actually doing vegan Fridays during Lent this year because we have been wanting to try more vegan meals and Friday is a day we have a little more time to cook and try new things. [/quote]
