+=head1 NAME
+
+Moose::Cookbook::Snack::Keywords - Restricted "keywords" in Moose
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+Moose exports a number of sugar functions in order to emulate Perl
+built-in keywords. These can cause clashes with other user-defined
+functions. This document provides a list of those keywords for easy
+reference.
+
+=head2 The 'meta' keyword
+
+While most collisions can be avoided, you cannot avoid importing a
+C<meta> method when you C<S<use Moose>>. If you try to override or
+change what C<meta> does, you could end up breaking Moose internals.
+
+=head2 Moose Keywords
+
+If you are using L<Moose> or L<Moose::Role> its best to avoid these
+keywords:

+=item override

+

+

+=head2 Moose::Util::TypeConstraints Keywords
+
+If you are using L<Moose::Util::TypeConstraints> its best to avoid
+these keywords

+=head2 Avoiding collisions
+
+=head3 Turning off Moose
+
+To remove the sugar functions L<Moose> exports just add C<S<no Moose>>
+at the bottom of your code:
+
+ package Thing;
+ use Moose;
+
+ # code here
+
+ no Moose;
+
+This will unexport the sugar functions that L<Moose> originally
+exported. The same will also work for L<Moose::Role> and
+L<Moose::Util::TypeConstraints>.
+
+=head3 Sub::Exporter features
+
+L<Moose>, L<Moose::Role> and L<Moose::Util::TypeConstraints> all use
+L<Sub::Exporter> to handle all their exporting needs. This means that
+all the features that L<Sub::Exporter> provides are also available to
+them.
+
+For instance, with L<Sub::Exporter> you can rename keywords, like so:
+
+ package LOL::Cat;
+ use Moose 'has' => { -as => 'i_can_haz' };
+
+ i_can_haz 'cheeseburger' => (
+ is => 'rw',
+ trigger => sub { print "NOM NOM" }
+ );
+
+ LOL::Cat->new->cheeseburger('KTHNXBYE');
+
+See the L<Sub::Exporter> docs for more information.
+
+=head3 namespace::clean
+
+You can also use L<namespace::clean> to clean up your namespace, but
+you must be careful not to remove C<meta> when doing so:
+
+ package Foo;
+ use Moose;
+ use namespace::clean -except => 'meta';
+ # ...
