'bread' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.

'pass fool eating black' is the wordplay.
'pass' becomes 'col' (col is a term for a mountain pass).
'fool' becomes 'oaf' (I've seen this before).
'eating' indicates putting letters inside.
'black' becomes 'b' (abbreviation as in pencil hardness).
'col'+'oaf'='coloaf'
'coloaf' placed around 'b' is 'COBLOAF'.
