Pancake Day is a favourite of children in the UK, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand and Canada. On this day, they get to eat as many pancakes as they want.
In Newfoundland, Canada, the cook puts a ring or a coin in the pancakes. The person who finds the coin will be rich and the person who finds the ring will be the next to get married.
In England, there are pancake races. People must run a race with a pan and toss the pancake while they run. The winner is the first person to cross the finishing line with a pancake that is not broken. The most famous race is in Olney, UK.
