Yom Kippur (the Jewish Day of Atonement) shouldn’t be confused with kipper (a fish that is often eaten for breakfast), but there are jokes.

Wikipedia: Kipper
A kipper is a whole herring, a small, oily fish, that has been split in a butterfly fashion from tail to head along the dorsal ridge, gutted, salted or pickled, and cold-smoked over smouldering wood chips (typically oak).
In the United Kingdom, Republic of Ireland and some regions of North America, kippers are most commonly eaten for breakfast.
Wikipedia: Yom Kippur
Yom Kippur (/ˌjɒm kɪˈpʊər, ˌjɔːm ˈkɪpər, ˌjoʊm-/; Hebrew: יוֹם כִּפּוּר, Yōm Kippūr, [ˈjom kiˈpuʁ], lit. ‘Day of Atonement’) is the holiest day in Judaism and Samaritanism. It occurs annually on the 10th of Tishrei, corresponding to a secular date in September or early October.
