Mnemonic

Bring some rice under a canopy and stuff it in a wolverine's mouth. Make it chew it a bit, scrape it out, and voila — you've made sugar!

Taste that sweet, sweet sugar. Not many people know, but this is how it's made. The canopy is needed for temperature control, and the wolverine… well, it's got special enzymes in its mouth or something.
