I thought Lent was about fasting.

It is. The hardcore Catholics don't eat meat on Fridays throughout the entire year, and every weekday during Lent. The majority folks just do the Friday thing and grab a shrimp poboy, fried catfish, crawfish, etc. and give up soda or something.

In other words, shite you already knew, and this is unfortunately a bait some will bite.
