Fish included in simple product lines? (7)
I believe the answer is:
barcode
'product lines?' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.
'fish included in simple' is the wordplay.
'fish' becomes 'cod' (type of fish).
'included in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'simple' becomes 'bare' (synonyms).
'cod' inserted inside 'bare' is 'BARCODE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for barcode that I've seen is " may be scanned".)
I've seen this clue in The Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
