The passion of Holy Week knows no bounds. Even on TikTok users have shown their enthusiasm for the dates with videos of processions around the world. Precisely, a video has gone viral on social networks, as it shows how Jesus replaced a heavy wooden cross with a barrel of beer in the middle of the Way of the Cross, dividing the opinions of Internet users.

This was the case of a Jesus Christ, who decided not to wear the famous wooden cross, and preferred to carry with him a crucifix made up of beer barrels, all lined up in the shape of a cross as if he were wearing it. The return, as is often done, is represented in the Stations of the Cross.

Helped by the 'little devil' to move the boxes and with a smile from ear to ear, this Jesus Christ enjoyed every moment before the curious eyes of those who saw him bring beer and drink step by step.

The action aroused many laughs, but also criticism on social networks

It is true that social networks present very strange situations in the face of common situations, but in this case, by addressing a topic such as faith or religion and its greater representativeness, it generated controversy and found opinions that, obviously, are aimed at an act disrespectful of the image of Jesus Christ.

For some other users, this seems like the perfect image of this character, since the heat that reigns in the city forces them to think of the same solution that this Jesus Christ chose, since it can turn water into wine, or beer.

These are the most important traditions celebrated on Easter Sunday

Fasting and abstinence from red meat consumption are a form of sacrifice reminiscent of the fast that Jesus did during the 40 days and nights he spent in the desert, according to the Gospel of Matthew.

Therefore, the time that Lent lasts is a time to reflect and do penance, as well as to repent of sins and remember the sacrifice that Christ made for humanity. But only sacrifice refers to red meat, because fish is intimately linked to the Catholic tradition.

Fish accompanied by all kinds of vegetables and legumes make up the main dishes, mostly to avoid the desire to consume red meat. While sweets also ended up becoming protagonists of the tables.

But if there is one dish that stands out, either as a starter or as a main meal, it is the waking empanadas, one of the main attractions that crossed borders and are found in various countries of the world, with a flaky and sugary dough. They can be stuffed with tuna or mackerel, with a crispy puff pastry. The traditional recipe includes red pepper, hard-boiled egg, onion and tomato. You can prepare them with chard or spinach. In Spain, for example, the filling is usually tuna, boiled egg, wild asparagus and homemade fried tomato.

Paella with seafood is also an Argentinian classic adopted from Spain and consumed in many countries. It is prepared with rice, pepper, saffron and a combination of seafood, including clams, shrimps, mussels, scallops, lobster, among others.

Torrejas make up another classic Easter dish. Also known as torrijas, they are slices of bread passed in egg and flour, and then fried. Its light version is by dipping them in skim milk and egg, cooking them in the oven, without going through flour. They are sprinkled with cinnamon.
