On Saturday we take to churches decorated baskets containing a sampling of traditional food (so called "święconka") to be blessed. The food blessed in the church remains untouched until Sunday morning! On the Easter Sunday we celebrate a festive breakfest. First we share "święconka" with each other.
I don't see how people would be able refrain from eating these for a day until after the blessign during the Easter service. Maybe the Lord has given them strength.
