Yes, if you're a non-Catholic Christian. Although I was raised as a protestant, and my Methodist grandmother would have had a stroke if we had eaten meat on Good Friday.

Are you a bad person for eating meat on Good Friday?
If you promised that you wouldn't, and then broke that promise, you could be regarded as a "bad person" for breaking the promise.(If you're a Roman Catholic, then you're breaking an implicit promise to fast and abstain from meat on Good Friday, since that's part of the teachings of that particular church. If you're Protestant, you may or may not be; consult your religious teacher for guidance.)If you're not Christian at all, then "Good Friday" is just another Friday and you're no better, or worse, for eating meat on that day than you would be on any other day.
Meat on good Friday?
Good Friday (all day) is a day of fast and abstinence. Those between the ages of 18 and 59 are obliged to fast. By this obligation, the individual is permitted only one full meal a day. At the age of 14, people are obliged to abstain. This obligation prohibits the eating of meat, but not eggs, milk products or condiments of any kind, even though made from animal fat. The obligation to observe the laws of fast and abstinence "substantially" or as a whole is a serious obligation.
