Stangely enough, a 17th century Romanian cookery book (which, from the title,
specifically includes recipes from Lenten and Meat days) has a huge section on
fish recipes, but very little strictly vegan ones. Romanians were (and mostly
still are) Orthodox christian.

My guess is they allowed fish during Lent - I could check my other sources when
I get back home to see if I can confirm this information.
