Divine grub emergency worker ate right before pop star (8)
I believe the answer is:
ambrosia
'pop star' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both things that one consumes for nourishment as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for ambrosia that I've seen before include "Beebread" , "meal fit for gods" , "Legendary food bringing immortality" , "Gods' dinner?" , "luxury food" .)
