Each religion has special food that is eaten at times of worship and at festivals. In some religions, people have special types of food that they eat every day. This book includes information on the world's six major religions drawing on their similarities and differences. Topics covered include: the offerings made by Hindus at a temple shrine; the seder plate and the special foods for the Jewish passover; the rules that Buddhist monks follow about eating their midday meal; how Christians make pancakes in preparation for Lent; the foods that Muslims eat to break their fast at the end of Ramadan; and, how food is prepared for Sikhs in the kitchen of the Sikh temple.
