In a letter sent to the mayor and city council, PETA representatives proposed the idea of birth control, saying it would make the rodents infertile and prevent them from getting pregnant. PETA said the goal is to reduce the rat population over time, according to an Action News 6abc report.

In Italy the meal was La Vigilia; in America it picked up a new name, the Feast of the Seven Fishes.
