Lentils and meats in different food processor (5,9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

small intestine

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'food processor' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how one could define the other.

'lentils and meats in different' is the wordplay.
'and' says to put letters next to each other (I've seen this in other clues).
'different' indicates an anagram.
'meats'+'in'='meatsin'
'lentils' after 'meatsin' is 'meatsinlentils'.
'meatsinlentils' with letters rearranged gives 'SMALL INTESTINE'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for small intestine that I've seen before include "part of the body" , "Outlet from the stomach" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
