Fruit from entire can chopped up (9)
I believe the answer is:
nectarine
'fruit' is the definition.
(I know that nectarine is a fruit)
'entire can chopped up' is the wordplay.
'chopped up' indicates an anagram.
'entire'+'can'='entirecan'
'entirecan' is an anagram of 'NECTARINE'.
'from' is the link.
(Other definitions for nectarine that I've seen before include "Variety or mutation of a peach" , "fruity" , "Kind of peach with thin skin and no down" , "Entrance I make with thin-skinned peach" , "Smooth-skinned fruit" .)
