∙ 12y agoA Catholic may not eat meat on a "Day of Abstinence". In Lent, that is every Friday, and a few other days, too. "Meat" would include chicken, yes, but meat is further defined as the flesh of a warmblooded animal. A Catholic can eat any shellfish, frog legs, or even turtle on a day of abstinence - they are all cold-blooded.
