Food for the journey to Bourne End (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tripe

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

'journey to bourne end' is the wordplay.
'journey' becomes 'trip' (trip is a kind of journey).
'end' indicates one should take the final letters.
The last letter of 'bourne' is 'e'.
'trip'+'e'='TRIPE'

'for the' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for tripe that I've seen before include "Edible nonsense?" , "Edible entrails" , "Lining of the stomach of a cow as food" , "Rubbish (colloq.)" , "Rubbish; offal" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
