In Japan, a chopstick grips Spanish food (5)
I believe the answer is:
nacho
'spanish food' is the definition.
'nacho' can be an answer for 'food' (nacho is a kind of food). I'm not certain of the 'spanish' bit.
'in japan a chopstick grips' is the wordplay.
'in' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'NACHO' can be found hidden inside 'japan a chopstick grips'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for nacho that I've seen before include "Tortilla chip served with savoury toppings" , "Small piece of tortilla with a topping" , "Mexican corn chip eaten with cheese, etc" , "Mexican bite" , "Foreign fare" .)
