History of Easter Easter is one of the holidays that are inseparably linked to Christianity and the Christian tradition. However, to a side observer, the connection between the resurrection of Jesus and the search for eggs carried in a basket by a bunny might seem somewhat unclear, which calls for returning to the roots of the Easter tradition. The food-related aspects of Easter are particularly worthy of consideration due to the lack of an obvious logical connection between the Biblical concept of Easter and its food tradition. Breaking down the anthropological history of Easter is quite difficult due to the religious narrative that is connected inseparably with its very essence. However, given the fact that a significant portion of the human culture is built on the foundation of some semblance of religious beliefs or, at the very least, philosophic postulates, disconnecting the history of any tradition as foundational as Easter is impossible without examining the religious component. Based on the current accounts of their research, the concept of Easter was founded on the tradition celebrating Easter, the goddess of spring, and the revival of nature (Fieldhouse, 2017). Afterward, the Jewish festival of Passover was created, aimed at celebrating the fight of Jewish people against oppression and supporting their religious beliefs (Fieldhouse, 2017). Finally, the Christian church accepted the tradition of the Passover since it was celebrated by Jesus, according to the Bible (Fieldhouse, 2017). This tradition continues to change due to globalization and immigration, with every new community adding a unique touch to the traditions of Easter. Easter Food In the contemporary Christian tradition, particularly, in its popular form, Easter evokes the image of a bunny carrying a basketful of eggs. Although one might consider the specified image to be a later addition to the Easter tradition since the latter is typically associated with Christian beliefs in an average member of the modern global community, the connection between Easter and rabbits, as well as eggs, is much older and more nuanced. In fact, eggs as the crucial Easter food are believed to have appeared before Easter was incorporated into the Christian tradition. The reasoning behind the specified statement is quite easy to understand. According to the existing theory, an egg as the embodiment of life at its conception stage is highly representative of the initial meaning that Easter was supposed to have, namely, that one of rebirth and revival after experiencing the challenges of winter (Montanari, 2015). Therefore using eggs as the symbolic food that was supposed to guide people toward the beginning of a new chapter in their life and the beginning of a new year was a vital metaphor that represented an essential cultural tradition. Remarkably, while being the first food item associated with Easter, eggs are not the only element of the Easter menu. While other dishes may vary depending on the area and its culture-specific approach to celebrating the holiday, the general idea of the food represented during Easter is a cornucopia of dishes and tasty experiences (Montanari, 2015). Indeed, the cultural tra
