Families across Northeast Florida and Southeast Georgia are noticing higher seafood prices this Lent, particularly for Friday fish fries and restaurant meals. A major local supplier says rising global shipping costs and tariffs are behind the increases.

The Greek seaside town of Galaxidi has exploded into a messy “flour war” as many of its 1,700 residents and many visitors pelted each other with bags of dyed flour.

For many Christians, this week brings Ash Wednesday, a solemn day of fasting and reflection.

Fasting across religions is practiced for a wide range of reasons that include spiritual purification and self-discipline.

Many restaurants and churches are getting ready to host fish fries again now that Lent is officially underway. And while fried fish sure is delicious, it’s important not to eat too much of it.

It’s hard to believe that spring is right around the corner and Lent is here.

For those planning to cook fish at home, try using an air fryer. It will give you that crispy texture without the added oils. You could make your own low-fat sauce, too.
