(8th February) Shrove Tuesday
Shrove Tuesday is commonly seen as the last chance to feast before Lent. It is often called Pancake Day. We eat pancakes because they contain fat, butter and eggs, which used to be typical food forbidden during Lent.
Lent
Lent is a period of forty days (not counting Sundays) between Shrove Tuesday and Easter. It is very common for people to try to give up something like chocolate during Lent.
