Fit in pieces of bacon for meal (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

conform

'fit in' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'pieces of bacon for meal' is the wordplay.
'pieces of' indicates a hidden word (I've seen 'piece' mean this).
'CONFORM' is hidden in the letters of 'bacon for meal'.

(Other definitions for conform that I've seen before include "Follow the crowd" , "become fitter?" , "Toe the line" , "Fall into line" , "Follow the herd" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
