The following section is inaccurate:
"the Forty Days of Great Lent itself, which begin on Clean Monday and for which a vegetarian type diet, with the addition that on many days the use of oil is excluded as well ("the Lenten Fast"). On two specific feasts during Lent (the Annunciation and Palm Sunday), fish is allowed. The fast is prescribed until Easter. This period coincides with the springtime birth of new lambs."
The Orthodox Lenten Fast consists of abstention from meat, animal products (dairy and eggs), fish, olive oil and wine. Shellfish is allowed. On weekends, we are permitted to have olive oil and wine, though the rest of the restrictions remain.

editHello, and thanks for the page. I dont see any date on this page, and don't have the information either. Do we know when it was set in motion, who wrote it, and an idea of it spread in history ? Thanks a lot. RigOLuche (talk) 01:49, 3 February 2023 (UTC)
