On Fridays during Lent, the internet tells me that Catholics aren't permitted to eat any meat. But locally here in central Mexico, on Fridays during Lent they make delicious chicken carnitas instead of pork ones, which is possibly an atypical interpretation of the religious teachings.
Regardless of the reasoning, lunch will hopefully be excellent.

It seems beaver or otter is also acceptable.
