Today - Fish Fry Day Friday Fish Fry Day is celebrated on the first Friday of Lent every year based on a tradition started by German Catholic settlers who came to Wisconsin in the 19th century. At the time, the Church was strict and only allowed Catholics to consume fish - not just for Lent - but every Friday of the year. This was quickly adopted by Wisconsin locals, who started finding creative ways to serve their fish. Friday fish nights became a cultural tradition in Wisconsin because of beer. Breweries like Blatz, Miller, Pabst, and Schlitz were based in Wisconsin. Not only does fried fish go well with beer, but beer-battered fish fry also became a popular way to coat the fish. In the 1920s, fishing became a rising industry in the state. 2024-02-16 07:47:31 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Today
