Can I eat eggs on Saturday?

Published in Food and Culture 2 mins read

Whether you can eat eggs on Saturday depends on your personal beliefs and practices. There's no universal rule.

Religious and Cultural Perspectives

  • Vaishnavite Tradition: According to a reference, some Vaishnavites abstain from eating eggs and other non-vegetarian foods on Saturdays. This is because Saturday is considered an important day for prayer to Lord Vishnu. This practice is part of their religious and cultural customs. [It is not a must. These customs of not eating eggs or any other non veg are religious practices. Vaishnavites feel Saturday is an important day to pray to Lord Vishnu, hence they keep off eggs and other meats that day. 23-Dec-2017]

Personal Choice

  • No Dietary Restrictions: If you do not adhere to Vaishnavite traditions or other religious dietary restrictions, there is likely no reason why you cannot eat eggs on Saturday.

Summary

Consideration Egg Consumption on Saturday
Religious Restriction May be restricted for certain Vaishnavites
Personal Preference Allowed if no other restrictions apply
