Talk:Candy cane

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

So then where did the red stripes come from? The article never mentions that.

[edit] Candy cane is actually a J for Jesus?

I heard that the candy cane is actually a J. This represents Jesus the centre of the Christmas Story. The red represents his blood shed to save all men and the white represents his sinless past. Has anyone else ever heard of this (possible) story? (Thebandweekly 23:26, 20 December 2006 (UTC))

• It's covered in the Urban legends section. ‣tregoweth (talk) 02:45, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Perhaps a section on flavors/colors would be approprate?

I was thinking, perhaps there should be a section that details the most common flavors and the corresponding stripe combinations. Pidey 13:11, 26 December 2006 (UTC)
