Here’s a cheat sheet for the indecisive: Pre-Lent (January–February): If you find an egg, eat it. You earned it. Lent (March): Only if you’re not fasting. Or if you are fasting and need a secret pick-me-up. (I won’t judge.) Holy Week (Palm Sunday to Saturday): Go for it. No one’s checking.
Easter Sunday: The main event. Go ham. After Easter: Those discounted eggs on April 1st? Absolutely. They’re practically a civic duty to consume before they expire.
But here’s the kicker: you can eat Easter eggs in July if you find a forgotten stash in your pantry. It’s not weird—it’s a treasure hunt. You’re just more dedicated than the rest of us.
