Where/when/how did ham become the traditional meal for Easter?
-
When the farmer's turkey went into hiding after his near death experience the past November.
Happy Easter

Silly question since you missed the only date Jesus told us to remember is Nisan 14th eight days ago Luke 22:19 " Keep doing this in remembrance of me" That was the Jewish Passover and there is no mention of meat at that meal. That was the last Passover celebration as Jesus brought in the new convenient at that time.
Easter is of pagan origin as this article points out. I do not know this person is but it is like many articles that give the same information.

I thought it was because there isn't enough meat on a bunny. ::)

Howard must have the answer for this one.

I think tradition is probably more regional / cultural than anything else.
Having lived in Hawaii 17 years and being around a lot of Orientals, my mother sometimes served "Sukiyaki" (Japanese stew) or "Tempura" (battered fried meats - shrimp, fish / vegetables - onions, carrots, green beans, etc.). Here locally in Eastern New Mexico, we'll probably have "Carne Asada" (Mexican beef steak) and enchiladas at church. At local restaurants we'd have roast beef or prime rib.
"They know your a New Mexican when you choose restaurants based on their salsa."
