Candy cane shortage reported due to low peppermint harvest, supply chain issues

There is another shortage ahead of this holiday week - candy canes!
The announcement comes as another result of the supply chain issues that have been a problem for months in the country.
Plus, the production of peppermint in the United States has dropped about 25% in the last decade, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
Many stores received low inventory and sold out quickly.
