Long slice of feta cheese (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ache

'long' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'slice of feta cheese' is the wordplay.
'slice of' indicates a hidden word.
'ACHE' is hidden within 'feta cheese'.

(Other definitions for ache that I've seen before include "Hanker" , "burn" , "anguish" , "Hurt; yearn" , "Play up" .)
