This year's Lent is drawing to a close, with just over a week left. See the remaining days and why Christians observe the 40-day period.

For those observing Lent, the consumption of chicken on Fridays is typically avoided because it is categorized as flesh meat. According to traditional practices, believers refrain from eating flesh meat not only on Ash Wednesday but also on each Friday during Lent. Flesh meats encompass beef, pork, chicken, and turkey.
