[edit] Set sugarcane

The expression "set sugarcane" bothers me.

Which meaning of "set" is this?

It refers to the hardening of sugar from cane. Loaf sugar was produced from cane sugar syrup, which ultimately hardened. The result is a cone-shaped loaf, as mentioned in sugarloaf. The phrase which described sugar production has been replaced with mention of the common cone-shaped sugar. (SEWilco 05:21, 9 November 2005 (UTC))
