Greed from woman with food (7)
I believe the answer is:
avarice
'greed' is the definition.
(synonyms)
I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for avarice that I've seen before include "Greed - caviare (anag)" , "excessive desire for wealth" , "Rapacity" , "Eager desire" , "Greed, covetousness" .)
