SC - fast-day food

[Christina van Tets]

Hello the List!

Thanks to the gentle who pointed out that Lenten food is actually easier for 
those with religious dietary restrictions to handle (unless of course they 
follow the Pythagorean cult - whose restrictions, according to my husband, 
arise from their habit of meeting in caves...).

Last year I gave a 'feast' for 7 guests here on the research station (I'm 
amazed I could find that many who were interested!  Pity they've all moved 
away), who included among their number:
3 Jewesses-who-could-stand-my-pots, 2 Mormons, 2 vegetarians (one could eat 
fish), 2 hypoglycaemics.  My solution?  I gave the feast on a Friday and 
provided appropriate fast-day food.  Result, a very happy and impressed 
group of often marginalised eaters.  I'll certainly do that again if the 
need arises.
