Cheap sort of food (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

peach

'food' is the definition.
(peach is a kind of food)

'cheap sort' is the wordplay.
'sort' indicates an anagram.
'cheap' with letters rearranged gives 'PEACH'.

'of' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for peach that I've seen before include "Soft fleshy fruit" , "Fruit - beauty" , "Velvety-skinned fruit" , "Cheap (anag.)" , "Sweet stone-fruit" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
