Open Thread: Do you eat distinctive Lenten foods?

This CNS News Hub story also put me in mind of a professor's recent observation that in Jewish tradition and Christian practice up through the middle ages, most major liturgical seasons were accompanied by distinctive foods (Protestants do not seem to have kept to these practices as much, to my knowledge).

So, do you have certain foods you eat only during Lent, particularly on days of abstinence from meat?

I remember as I was growing up, the frequency of Lentil soup skyrocketed during Fridays in Lent.
