Explain?

I think you might mean passover or such but I am not accustomed to it exactly.

Though whatever you speak of it sounds remarkably similar in timing and tradition to the Catholic Lenten season.

Tell Rin THIS american hates fatty beef. I just need mine meaty. and as lean as possible. and slightly toasty/crisp outside with lots of juiciness inside heh heh.

I think some of it is horrible but oftentimes I am forced to not bother with such higher moralities as I am just one man... with needs... such as not starving to death trying to fulfill impossible moral standards -chuckle-

actually, Americans as a whole prefer lean cuts, and lean meats are growing in popularity.

i was referring to the Orthodox tradition of Great Fast, which is to Orthodoxy what Lent is to Catholicism. in fact, i think Lent means "fast" or "great fast"
