'general' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.

'description for the contents of good food' is the wordplay.
'description' becomes 'round' (I have seen 'Description of Tweedledum' mean 'round' so perhaps 'description' could also mean 'round').
'for' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other) (I've seen this in other clues).
'the contents of good food' becomes 'all' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'round' put after 'all' is 'ALLROUND'.
