Learned to rue diet changes (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

erudite

'learned' is the definition.
('erudite' can be a synonym of 'learned')

'rue diet changes' is the wordplay.
'changes' is an anagram indicator.
'rue'+'diet'='ruediet'
'ruediet' anagrammed gives 'ERUDITE'.

'to' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for erudite that I've seen before include "Learned, well educated" , "Showing profound knowledge" , "Full of knowledge" , "Well educated, having great learning" , "'Learned, knowledgeable (7)'" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
