Peppermints have red stripes primarily for aesthetic appeal, as the contrasting colors make them visually attractive and festive, especially during the holiday season. The red and white stripes also help distinguish peppermint candies from other types of mints. Historically, the design may have been influenced by traditional candy-making practices, where the stripes were created through a process of twisting and shaping the candy. Overall, the red stripes contribute to the iconic image of peppermint candies.
