It always strikes me as a bit of an odd day. I love pancakes, but generally only for a lazy weekend breakfast, not on a Tuesday. But people seem to go mental for them once a year & probably never eat them for the rest of the year.

Then there's that odd phenomenon of drowning them in lemon concentrate that comes in a plastic lemon.. one can only presume that real lemons are, I dunno.. too real?

So what's your take on Jif Lemon Day & will you be partaking in the great pancake debacle of 2012?

[JuliusCaesar]

Yes.

Habit from when kids small.


Also, I like pancakes. Usually mushroom filling, followed by dessert pancake with Nutella.

Surely you mean CIF

I think it's less to do with pancakes and more about recreating the traditions we grew up with

[PrincessLola]

Its a nice tradition.

Better then Valentine's Day anyway.. *forever alone*

I plan on eating loads of the bastards tomorrow. With ice cream.

Although, we would have pancakes fairly regularly in our house.

[Leo Dowling]

Won't be able to do it tomorrow so had pancake Tuesday today instead. I had seven of them and I will probably eat another three before bed. Pancake Tueday overtook easter for me as soon as I hit around 21

[Novella]

I love pancakes so yes, I'm gonna have some. I'm gonna have lots!

[Seachmall]

Pancake Tuesday; the only day of the year I eat breakfast.

[The King of Moo]

There are strong, deeply-ingrained religious traditions underpinning Pancake Tuesday.

Jesus loved pancakes, but forced himself to only have them once a year on a Tuesday in spring, as he knew otherwise he'd just eat them everyday and get really fat.

So if you don't have pancakes tomorrow, then the terrorists win.

[Casillas]

Feck, im on a healty eating kick at the mo. This could ruin it all!!

[Raminahobbin]

Pancakes are just the best. They deserve their own day, dedicated just for them!! Always felt bad for my mam though- she used to end up standing over the cooker for ages making pancake after pancake for 4 kids. She became an expert at having 2 or 3 on the go at one time.

And I'm pretty sure everyone with siblings fought over who got the first pancake! It's an important part of the tradition.

[jay phelan]

I'll be eating a f**k load of them.

I've got my Nutella at the ready!

[homer.j]

mmmmmmmmm *drools* pancaaaakkkkkeeeeeeessssssss.

A sprinke of caster sugar and a drop of jif lemon and we're ready to go.

[Chuck Stone]

I'm gonna eat so many pancakes I might turn into a big pancake.
