Fatty stuff in a salsa, say, and nothing to fix problem (7,6)
I believe the answer is:
adipose tissue
'a salsa say and nothing to fix problem' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'fatty stuff' is the wordplay.
'fatty' becomes 'adipose' (synonyms).
'stuff' becomes 'tissue' (tissue is a kind of stuff).
'adipose'+'tissue'='ADIPOSE TISSUE'
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for adipose tissue that I've seen is " Cells that store fat".)
I've seen this clue in The Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
