Back when I was a kid.. during Lent, no meat (or chicken) was to be eaten - and Fridays were fish days 9to this day, I cannot stand tuna casserole or fillet of flounder - it was the friday meal of choice of a working mom who was a bad cook
The one exception to it (And I swear my mother made this up, but I've heard it from other people as well)- was if St Patty's Day fell during Lent, then an exceptioon was granted and corned beef was allowed (as well as beer for those who chose to give up booze for Lent)
These days, i think it's just Ash Wednesday and Good Friday are meat free days...
