A high school student recently asked if there is any Christian symbolism to the candy cane. Some maintain that the red and white colors represent Christ as fully human and fully divine. (Therefore, three-colored candy canes would be heretical.) I also came across a lengthier description of the religious significance of the candy cane.
So if you receive a candy cane this Christmas, consider yourself reminded of the great gift of Christ's life and death for you.
