Fresh curd Dee lowered in price (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

reduced

'lowered in price' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'fresh curd dee' is the wordplay.
'fresh' is an anagram indicator (a fresh re-ordering of the letters).
'curd'+'dee'='curddee'
'curddee' anagrammed gives 'REDUCED'.

(Other definitions for reduced that I've seen before include "Lowered in price" , "Lessened" , "looked smaller" , "Made less in size etc" , "Got rid of some bodily weight" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
