Why do places serves fish on friday?
It seems like every friday that my boyfriend and I go out to eat all the buffets serve fish. Why is it always fish friday? Can anyone explain or is it just some odd coincidence?

I'm a Christian Catholic. :]
Like the people below me said, we can't eat meat on Fridays. I don't know TOO much about it, but it does have to do with the Last Supper with Jesus and his Disciples.
We go through a 40-day fast to celebrate Christ being risen (Easter). The fast is just a preparation for this.
This is also the same time that most Catholics give something up (for me, it's mountain dew) for the entire Lenten period.
So as soon as Easter is here, you won't be seeing as much fish on Fridays haha.
Hope that cleared things up. :]

I used to wonder the same thing. :]
But I found out why from my mom, if you're a Christian Catholic, they're not supposed to eat meat on fridays, like chicken, beef, stuff that come from mammels I guess.
And on fridays you can eat anything but that.
I don't know why, but it has to do with Jesus and his decipals or something when they were having dinner together.
I'm not sure.
Hope I helped hun! xx

Wow, my dad and I had a conversation about this yesterday actually! I don't know if they still do this, but Catholics used to always eat fish on Fridays. So when my parents were in school, the cafeteria would always serve some type of fish on Friday, and a lot of restaurants still do that. I'm not Catholic so I wouldn't know why, or even if people still do that, but that's why :)
