What is Pancake Tuesday?

Pancake Tuesday, also called Pancake Day, Shrove Tuesday, Fat Tuesday and Mardi Gras (which is French for "Fat Tuesday"), is the last day of feasting before Lent begins on Ash Wednesday. It's called so due to the tradition of eating pancakes on the day. This tradition comes from a time where any remaining rich foods were eaten on the day before Lent to use them up, and fasting begins. Pancake Tuesday is a moveable feast whose date is determined by Easter, and it's celebrated exactly 47 days before Easter Sunday. The date can vary from as early as February 3rd to as late as March 9th.

For detailed information on Pancake Tuesday see Wikipedia's entry on Shrove Tuesday.
