Shrove Tuesday, also known as Pancake Day in some countries, is the day before Ash Wednesday, which marks the beginning of Lent in many Christian traditions. It is traditionally a day of feasting and celebration, as Lent is a period of fasting and penance that lasts for 40 days leading up to Easter. Shrove Tuesday is observed by indulging in rich foods like pancakes, which use up ingredients like butter, eggs, and sugar that are often given up during Lent.
