    Not sure if this is indended or not, but the somewhat controversial mother tree hypothesis stipulates exactly this – trees borrowing carbohydrates (sugar) from neighbors via mycorrhizal networks.

      I thought the small one was a parasite - wanting the sugar. It would work as a joke with specific taxa.

      They understand the sugar; they don’t know what a cup is.

    Fun fact of the day: Xylitol is a type of sugar that is extracted from trees, typically from birch.

        Like a small cup or a big cup? I’d rather just use my scale, it’s important to be accurate when baking
