Hello all, Tomorrow begins the Great Lent. As you may know, for followers of Catholic and Orthodox Christianity, Lent is the period of abstinence, piety, charity to others, and prayer. Abstinence is refraining from slaughtered landed meats and their by-products. CertifiedMeatless has a vast catalogue of food products that are void of landed meats and their by-products. Ash Wednesday, the beginning of Lent for the Occidental Christians, is the ultimate in meatless Wednesday.
