Here’s a delightful fact: Caviar is fish eggs, so it’s 100% legal on Good Friday. That means you can celebrate the death of our Savior with tiny salty orbs of luxury. Is that weird? A little. But it’s also classy. If you’re feeling fancy, slap some caviar on a cracker with a dollop of crème fraîche. You’ll look like a billionaire with a guilty conscience.

What About Snacks? (Because We All Need Snacks)
Potato chips? Yes. French fries? Yes. Popcorn? Yes. Anything that’s not meat-based is a green light. But watch out for gummy candies that contain gelatin—many are made from pork or beef bones. You want the vegan kind. Your Easter basket will thank you on Sunday when you’re not an accidental heretic with a stomachache.
And here’s a wild loophole: You can eat insects like crickets or grasshoppers. They’re legally considered “cold-blooded,” and John the Baptist ate locusts and honey. So if you’re feeling biblical, you can crunch on some roasted crickets while chanting, “Repent, and also, pass the salt.” I won’t judge.
