The holiday of Easter is associated with various Easter customs and foodways (food traditions that vary regionally). Preparing, coloring, and decorating Easter eggs is one such popular tradition. Lamb is eaten in many countries, mirroring the Jewish Passover meal.[1]
Eating lamb at Easter has a religious meaning.[2] The Paschal Lamb of the New Testament is in fact, for Christianity, the son of God Jesus Christ.[3] The Paschal Lamb, in particular, represents the sacrifice of Jesus Christ for the sins of humanity.[2] Eating lamb at Easter therefore commemorates the Death and Resurrection of Jesus.[2]
