  1. this is what I think happened . I think the person who did it probably liked white. They probably did not like the red stripes. They probably would of got caught. And it would not make a differents because the companys would not keep doing that. That what I think would happen.

  2. Maybe the person that stole the stripes wanted them to be on a wall. Or maybe the person wanted to put them on his shirt. Maybe he collected stripes for a rainbow. Or maybe he used the stripes to make a multicolored candycane.

  3. I think the person stole the stripes because he liked them so much he wanted to make stuff with the stripes on it. Because then people might like it and then everywhere he went he would see the stripes. Or maybe he wanted a car with the stripes. #GARRETT

  4. I think the kids stole the stripes. I think they sucked off all of the stripes because they really liked sugar. I bet they got caught by their parents, but they had fun "stealing" the stripes. I think it would be a lot of fun to "steal" the stripes. And that's what I think happened.

  5. I think they stole the stripes because they really like stripes and candy canes. I think they must really love stripes. I also think they were really poor and they needed food and the easy thing to do was steal the strips on a candy cane! plus how doesn't like candy canes? That is what I think happened. good luck to the rest. bye

  6. I think someone stole the stripes because they liked the stripes. Most people love the because it has all the flavoring. So the candy cane factory had no stripes to put on the candy canes. The candy cane factory called the police. The police figered out who stole the stripes and arested them. Thats what I think happened to the stripes.

  7. I think the elves in the North Pole got angry at Santa because Santa told them he didn't need them after Christmas. So they stole all the stripes from the candy canes because they were angry. Without stripes, there are no candy canes and without candy canes, there is no Christmas. Then the kids all around the world began to not like Christmas and that hurt Santa's feelings. So Santa decided to rehire the elves so more kids would like Christmas again and the stripes came back. Yay!

  9. Hi I am Sydney and I think somebody stole the stripes because...
    They might like the stripes on the candy cane and not the white part of the candy cane.
    Maybe this person hates red stripes, candy and Christmas so the person stole the stripes from a candy cane so we won't have candy for Christmas.
    The person could hate candy canes and could like making people miserable and could be working with other people who don't like candy canes and stole the red stripes so they would be happy and make other people miserable. Because a candy cane is never done without it's red stripes.
    Maybe this person knows Santa and the person was bad when he or she was young and got ashes in the their stoking and knows Santa loves candy canes and stole the red stripes for payback from Santa.
    Maybe the person stole red stripes from all the candy canes because the person loved them as a kid and got a cavity and had to get a fake tooth and kids at the person's school made fun of he or she for his fake tooth. So the person because the people that bullied the loved candy canes and is doing this because that bad thing happened to he or she when this person was young.
    And that is what I think the person who did this is doing this for.

  10. I think somebody stole the strips because... they might have wanted to have red strips on there jacket or there house. Or because he wanted the raping on his presents to be red strips. Or because he wanted to make a ginger bread house with red strips. And that is why I think someone stole the red strips

  11. What I think happened was that some kid wanted to get noticed at his school. One day he came up with an idea. Since tomorrow would be Christmas Eve, he wanted to do something with a Christmas candy. He thought maybe he could take out some of the sugar out from some Hershey Kisses. He thought it would make the kids sick so he did not. Then he had the best idea ever (to himself!) He thought that maybe he could get every candy cane in the lower school and take off the stripes on the candy canes they were going to eat at school. He thought it over. He was going to do it. He went to school early. He got into the kitchen of the school and did his work. He could not believe he did not get caught. When people came into the cafeteria during lunch they were surprised that the candy canes had no red stripes. When the kids came to lunch and sat next to the boy, they noticed that he had red all over his hands. The kids asked why his hands were red and he told the truth that he wanted to get noticed. He did not get in trouble for his effort. Merry Christmas!

  12. I think someone took the strips to make a huge candy cane for a conn test and the person asked the candy man to have the strips so he could win the conn test and he had the white and all he needed was the red and the candy man said no because the candy cans were for the kids and so over night the guy stole the strips off the candy canes and Santa saw the guy take the strips and said he is on my bad list and the next morning was Christmas morning and the guy did not get any gifts .And that's what I think happened !!

  13. I think that Rudolph's nose wasn't as bright as usual to lead santa's sleigh so Santa stole the stripes from the candy canes and put them on Rudolph's nose.I'm guessing maybe when he was delivering presents someone woke up crept down stairs and saw Rudolph and Santa in her living room.I guess she was really surprised to actually spot them that she didn't say anything.Right when they were about to leave the girl charged downstairs and said "wow i've never seen santa in real life" Santa smiled looked at Rudolph and then he noticed Rudolph still had the stripes on his nose so he took off before the girl could even say good bye he went straight up to his workshop and ordered his elves to get the stripes off Rudolph's nose and put them back one every single candy cane.If the candy cane stripes are still missing check again because the elves returned them (well at least they should have!!!)
    Merry Christmas!

  14. Their was a guy and he loved candy canes. but the first time he tried the candy cane he could hardly breath. so he was rushed to the doctor. When the doctor was done he said your allergic to candy canes cause of the red dye. then the guy went so mad cause he couldn't eat candy canes!!! So he went to the candy cane and took the the red dye off so he could eat it when he wants.

  15. I think someone stole the stripes because they don't like the color Red. Or they don't like peppermint they just like mint. Or maybe it's a christmas scavenger hunt and the prize is the candy canes. Maybe the person took it because he/she didn't have a present so he/she took the candy canes for a present.

  16. I think...

    Someone really liked to cheat in things and they lived in a little village. The village happened to love red stripes. That person loved attention and money. And so he went to a candy cane factory close by him and he pried the strips right of the candy cane! He took them back to his house and got out a piece of paper He worked and worked all day until finally he
    made a piece of art with red stripes all over it. He sold it to a person for $100. The next week the factory found the finger prints on the candy cane and reported it to the police. The villager got sent to jail and the person who bought the painting got his money back. And they lived happily ever after.

  17. Maybe at Santa's work shop. There is a candy cane machine to make candy canes. So after 9 years the machine stopped working because there was no stripes. All the elves had a team meeting so the head elf said " We have a big problem the candy cane machine is broken so we need 1,500 volunteers we need you to go to a bunch of stores and get the candy canes, cut the red strips off the the candy canes and bring all back in a week." But when they went to the stores no one could see them cause they were so small. After five days the elves all came back to the North Pole. The elves collected 4,0000 candy cane stripes! But after that when families came to the store all the stripes were gone. One day when a little girl and her dad went to the store the little girl asked "why don't the the candy canes don't have any stripes said the little girl I don't have any clue", said the dad. Have a great Christmas!

  18. Maybe there was a store that had candy cane decorations.The decorations were up for sale. Maybe there was a person that only wanted only the strips of of the candy because they were really starving and low on food.The per son who was low on food thought that it would be easy to steel. The person only liked the strips on the candy cane and his favorite color was red. So that night he went to the store and stole the red stripes of of the candy canes ran back home and ate it. He felt so good after eating that. but i don't think the owners of the store felt so good.
