Ye sinner, it's friday (I'm pretty sure no one around here will get the reference/joke).
I think that you're referencing a rule from Catholicism? :?
Yeah it's from a lesser known book called "The Book of Black"
It quotes (translated from Latin)
Originally posted by The Book of Black
And hear me disciples! Today is Feria Sexta! I repeat, Feria Sexta! On this day, bow to the glory of each other, not to the glory of thine savior! Ye who seeks fortune shall not look in the past, but in the days that set upon us! I call on thee disciples! Doth ye yield bowls? Doth ye yield cereal? That is what shall nourish your hunger! Feast not on the cow that provides you with your milk! Feast not on the chicken that provides you with the egg! I say feast on the cereal! You must feast on the cereal!
What's even more surprising is that I had learned about that rule after I no longer considered myself Catholic. I guess I wasn't as devout as I thought I was.
Hmm, I was going to ask something else, but since this topic is about food...hmmm...have you ever fasted as a catholic?
