It's f**ken vegetarian!!!

 

[T.S Quint]

Well so far I've managed to do both. :lol:

And I thought it was all meat, ie only fish is acceptable? Anyway, the braised beef with cashews was pretty good.

I've never understood why fish is not considered to be meat.
As I understand it, 'meat' is defined as the flesh of an animal. A fish is an animal, so its flesh should be considered meat as well.

You and me both. Had this exact same thought tonight, as I do most Easters. Some meaningless age-old delineation that's not worth worrying about I think.

 

[hindy111]

I ate kfc and steak. And a few easter eggs. I figure im good most the year anyhows, well shall I say not too bad-Ive never killed anyone-robbed so there the main commandments. I have stolen but only small things that was more out of convenience.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

You ate Easter eggs? On Good Friday?

You're f**ked.

 

[Bigfella]

Who was it convenient for Hindy? You or the person you stole it from?

Or did you steal it from a convenience store? I guess that would be convenient theft.

Tell that to one of my 'vegetarian' friends who eats fish (and no, she doesn't consider herself a 'pescatarian'. I have nothing against vegetarianism or veganism (I have a lot meals with no meat in them), but blind hypocrisy on the other hand....


Re, the Good Friday shit, to each their own....but I enjoyed a lasagne for dinner

I had my regular Good Friday meal - a hamburger with potato scallops and a battered sav.

I used to have to adhere to the 'no meat on Good Friday' rule when I was young. I was raised Catholic and my family always went to get fish and chips for dinner. I don't eat seafood though. Or eggs. It was hard for me to find a meal I liked that didn't contain meat. I used to have cheese and tomato sandwiches for dinner.
The day I finally realised that I could eat whatever the f**k I want and there's nothing anybody can do about it was a wonderful day.

I don't eat meat on Fridays in Lent.
Last night, on my way to the Wanderers game, I had a sensational meal at an Italian restaurant in Eat (Church) st. It's not hard tbh, to eat well on Fridays in Lent. I dunno what all the fuss is about.

Suity

 

[I bleed blue & gold]

It was chip rolls all round yesterday.

What fuss? People can eat what they like, if they go for symbolism....good on them...but I'd rather any sacrifices I make go to the direct benefit of others less fortunate (not my local fishmonger )

 

[84 Baby]

I'd rather sacrifices I make be first born children

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

Yes, that goes without saying

 

[Hollywood Jesus]

I'd rather not make sacrifices that benefit anybody else except myself.

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

Sounds like salary sacrificing is right up your alley then, HJ.
