My family always had pasta with a red sauce that had lobster, clams,mussels, shrimp and calamari. Christmas Eve was always a no meat supper at my grandparents house. Christmas day we would have roast beef, pork Crown roast and a ham. I believe Christmas Eve was treated like a Good Friday.

Why not fish? The pilgrims ate cod.

That's right. Good Friday and Ash Wednesday are the only true full fast days left according to current law. There used to be a lot more, and Christmas Eve was one of them.
