Commissar SFLUFAN Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 I sometimes cannot help but wonder if the "traditional" consumption of ham on both Christmas AND Easter -- the two most sacred feast days of the Christian liturgical calendar -- represents a subtle dig at Judaism and both its prohibition against the consumption of pork AND its rejection of the divinity of Christ. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched a video the other day about how people eat lamb on Easter. I had no clue people did. The guy pointed out that more north and Midwestern people eat a holiday ham, but "wasn't going to delve into that topic." I totally thought a similar thought, but the guy also pointed out at at this time of year the Germanic areas would totally have cured meats such as pork and it was one of the safe meats to eats back in the day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah - lamb is absolutely a traditional Easter meal, especially among Greek/Eastern Orthodox Christians. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CastlevaniaNut18 Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 I didn't like Easter as a kid, now I can just ignore it. Lamb is delicious, though. Pass on the ham. I wish I had a lesbian aunt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I was a kid it just meant my mom made me go shopping for a new dress, I had to get extra dolled up for church, and I couldn't even change right after because we had to drive up to my grandparents and take photos. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser_Soze Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 I went to my mom's house and she made salmon, with some sweet potatoes and green beans. Then we watched some episodes of Beavis and Butthead on P+ and wondered if they had the banned episode and turns out they do not, still banned.

AlwaysDyingX Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 We had ham from Honey baked Ham Co., stuffed shells for me since I don't eat the ham, and green bean casserole. We spent the morning fishing for stripers and came home and just had dinner the two of us. Nice Easter. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find this especially amusing as the risk of contracting trichinosis from consuming undercooked pork must've been through the roof back then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
