Fish on Fridays, wafers (you should have heard the debate at my college parish over whether it was acceptable to improve the taste of the bread used for Communion! Although I was on the side of the women doing the baking, even I thought that the transubstantiated body of Christ was never meant to be chocolate flavored, nor to have sesame seeds sprinkled on top. And yet... why not, exactly?), and wine with meals, even for the kids.
I have never seen the jello-and-white-stuff dish at a Catholic gathering, but I'm sure it must have occurred at some point.
