Easter takes place at a
different date each year, namely at first Sunday after the first full moon
after the 20th of March. Many countries have their traditions and special
dishes. Eggs have a prominent place on the Easter menu. After forty
days of fasting, without meat, milk products and eggs, people were probably
dying for an egg. The Catholics were
not allowed to have meat on Friday so on
Silent Friday, there would be fish on
the menu. In many countries however (like
Italy and
Greece) one eats
lamb.
