Catholics give this up in order to make compensation for venial sins committed throughout the week.
Roman Catholic AnswerWe give up meat in Fridays (not just during Lent) in order to 1) honor the day on which our Savior gave His life for us, 2) to conform our lives more perfectly to His, 3) to obey Church law, 4) to do penance; all of which is to obey His commandment "unless you do penance you will not be saved."
