  1. Maybe the person just wanted to be mean. Or just to be silly. Or he just wanted to be annoying. I think that because why else would he do it. He probably just wanted them so he could keep them all to his self. That is what I think.

  2. One day a little girl named Carly was wrapping presents for her family. Then she ran out of ribbon! Carly remembered a commercial about something called a candy cane. She thought that it had red ribbon wrapped around it. So she went to the candy store and bought some candy canes. Then she took off the red stripes and used them as ribbon.

  3. I think a really mean person snuck into the candy cane factory and programed the machines to make the candy canes without the stripes.
    Or he's been peeking at people eating candy canes and seeing they love them. So he went to the factory and stole the stripes. Probably so the people wouldn't buy the candy canes so the stores wouldn't get the money.
    But at the end of the story the people go to the machines and redo the machines so people would actually go to the stores and buy the candy canes. Then the police find the person who took away the stripes and they threw him in jail. And the mystery will be solved and all the people who loved candy canes with stripes would get them and eat them. Mystery solved candy canes with stripes are back.

  5. I think a person who hates Christmas or doesn't like candy canes bought a lot of candy canes and hosed them down with water ( when you lick a candy cane the stripes disappear). When the people came to the store to buy them the stripes were gone! Or someone was angry because a candy cane broke his tooth or something. When people bought the candy canes they were shocked. People expected the candy canes to have red stripes. They got angry and then the factory charged the man a large fine.

  6. I think it was a preson that was really poor and he didn't get candy canes on Christmas like lots of kids do. Then he saw a little kid eating a candy cane and he felt left out when he was a kid and he wanted to buy some candy canes but he didn't have any money. Then he grew up and got a job at the candy store and they have lots of candy canes. He decide to steel the keys to open the store and steel all of the candy canes. Then he tried one and he hated it. Then he tasted the stripes on the candy cane and he loved them. So he licked all of the stripes on all of the candy canes.

  7. I think a little girl or boy didn't like the red stripes. So he bought all of the candy canes he could, and licked them till the were white. Or threw them all away, (the ones with red stripes) and sneaked into a candy cane factory and re-programed the machines so they would make them white. While he/she did that they put something over that, that read "White with red stripes" on the pad of the machine so the workers would think that it was perfectly fine. But since the candy canes were white, the workers would think that they were out of red die, but they had none in stock left. Then they would have to orders some, but keep them in business and they had to sell white candy canes. But really all they had to do was take the note off and fix the settings!

  8. I think a boy named James went to the store to get presents for his family for Christmas. But he didnt have any ribbons to decorate them. So he went to the store to buy candy canes. He took the stripes off and ate the candy canes. He used the stripes to decorate the presents. His parents said how did you get ribbons to decorate the presents if all over town the ribbons are out of stock? James said "its a funny story...Here it goes" James explained that he went to the store to get presents for his family for Christmas..........

  9. There was kid named Junior and he his teacher was giving out a candy cane as a prize for a contest. So he snuck into his classroom and tried to steal the candy cane. Unfortunately for Junior when he grabbed it all he grabbed was the stripes. When Junior finally found out that it was only the stripes he had already taken a bite. They were so good that he decided to finish the stripes and nobody ever knew that he ate them.

  11. I think a person was trying to find a red and white shirt for christmas, but there was none left!So he got a white shirt instaed. Then he went to the candy store and bought all of the candy canes to take off the stripes and put them on his shirt. When he got home his parents saw the shirt and asked how did you get a red and white shirt? So he explained that he bought all the candy canes and took the stripes off of them and put them on the shirt. His parents thought that was a very good idea.

  12. I think the red stripe came off the candy cane because someone licked it off. Or the strip fated away because the sun. I think this mystery has a lot of answers to it. I also think the stripe came off because a boy or girl painted it white. I also think it molded from old age and the mold was white.

  13. I think Santa ate too many cookies and could not fit thru the chimneys. The elves had to pull the stripes off the candy canes to fix santa's suit. The elf's used the red stripes to make thread to sew the suit together. Santa could not tell anyone because he had to keep it a secret.

  14. I think that someone used water to wash all the stripes off because he hated candy canes. He could have licked the stripes off but he didn't like candy canes. His favorite candy was Tootsie roll. Hopefully no one will make him eat a candy cane with or without stripes.

  15. I think there was a person who did not like candy canes. He got so mad because everywhere he went he saw stuff about candy canes. Win a jar of candy canes, candy canes for $1.00 and teachers giving kids candy canes for Christmas. He got so furious that he stole all the candy canes and one accidently fell his mouth, but he only liked the red part. He then took all the red stripes off the candy canes for himself. That is what I think happened.
