Religion has a big influence of the way Italians eat.

Well not really, it makes no difference to them at all

Actually religion does make a impact on the way Italian eat. It doesn't effect their daily lives but on special occasions such as Good Friday and Christmas, many traditional Italians are influenced to follow some Catholic ideas. Although this may be known, on Good Friday they do not eat meat. They also do not put vinegar on their salads on good Friday, this is because pone time Jesus was tired and asked someone for water, instead they gave him vinegar. On Christmas lamb is typically eaten for dinner, this is not because of a popular meal choice but because it comes from the lyric "lamb of God you take away the sins...". Hope this helped!
