More unwholesome food in front of funeral platform (8)
I believe the answer is:
grubbier
'more unwholesome' is the definition.
(grubby can mean immoral or disreputable)
'food in front of funeral platform' is the wordplay.
'food' becomes 'grub' (grub is a kind of food).
'in front of' says to put letters next to each other.
'funeral platform' becomes 'bier' (platform for a coffin).
'grub'+'bier'='GRUBBIER'
(Another definition for grubbier that I've seen is " More sleazy".)
I've seen this clue in The Times.
