Hams proceed to go with sausage (4)
I believe the answer is:
mash
'sausage' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both things that one consumes for nourishment as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see an association between them that I can't see?
'hams proceed to go' is the wordplay.
'hams' anagrams to 'MASH'.
But, I am unsure how the anagram is indicated.
'with' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for mash that I've seen before include "Animal feed" , "Reduce to pulp" , "Crush into a soft, pulpy state" , "(Crush into) pulp" , "Black comedy film set in Korean War" .)
