So here I am in Ottawa freezing my butt off and spending a huge amount of my time getting my coat on every day to keep warm. Then someone hands me a candy cane and suddenly my mouth is freezing cold, and I want to know why in the world peppermint is the flavour of a holiday in one of the coldest months of the year.
The history of the candy cane is pretty vague and I had trouble finding any reasons as to why they became mint. I know you can get other flavours but peppermint is the most popular. It just doesn’t make sense.
