Fish and dairy were allowed.
We would always make tuna melts!

No meat today...then No meat on Fridays!
I have never heard of not eating fish or diary during lent. Actually, fish is what's for dinner.

I don't eat fish ever, but my family will eat it on Fridays. We don't eat meat on Fridays during Lent. I have one sister who *never* eats meat on Friday -the "good" Catholic that she is. Chat Icon

Re: Those Observing Lent....w/poll

I never understood people eating fish or eggs during Lent when abstaining from "meat".
I know there are all sorts of explainations for it, but none ever made sense to me. I will always see fish as meat.

Is fish considered a meat?



Fish is not considered a meat. Some people go so far as to say white meat (chicken or pork) is okay, but I kinda think that's pushing it. I'm pretty sure before the days of ordering a pizza and boxed macaroni & cheese, fish is what our parents and grandparents ate every Friday.
