Friday abstinence

What do y’all consider a suitable substitution for Friday abstinence? 
 

Do non meat eaters have to substitute another form of penance?

I can't really answer the first question.  And because of that, I started to keep the Friday abstinence. (On the few occasions where I do eat meat on a Friday - like when I'm travelling and can't choose my own meals - I would substitute a rosary or Lauds and Vespers.)

But for the second question, no. However, it would be laudable to add another penance, but that would be over and above.

Ash Wednesday

In England and Wales they brought back the no meat rule. I actually like it and find it easier to follow than just trying to come up with something myself.
