Shrove Tuesday, a new special day that I've never heard about before. But now I know why (Christian)people have pancakes that day. I like pancake too, especially with maple syrup.
Shrove Tuesday is the day before Ash wednesday (第一天 of Lent). Pancakes are eaten 因为 they are made out of 糖, 面粉, 鸡蛋, these are things that we normally do not eat during Lent.
Lent is a time when Christians give up something for 四十天, prior to Easter, in order to empathise with 耶稣Jesus who was sent into the wilderness for 40 天 and 夜 when he was tempted by the Devil.
Lent is like the first and fifteenth days of the lunar calendar in Taiwan. Some people, usually Taoists(道教信徒), eat vegetarian food on the two days to show respect to Buddha. Buddhists have vegetarian foods only, but Taoists eat meat.

During Lent, 我不吃巧克力，也不吃甜品.
