Does anyone actually like candy canes?

The minty sweet flavour.. sticks to your teeth, has sharp edges that cut your mouth. Rots your teeth.
Why are these still being made?

They're everywhere here in the UK, I don't see anything Christmassy about them at all but each to their own.

Candy canes are closely associated with Christmas as they are often used as decorations on trees and symbolize the shepherd's crook, representing the shepherds who visited Jesus. Their popularity as a Christmas treat began in the 19th century, particularly after they were used to adorn Christmas trees in the U.S. in 1847.
