appetites

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

'wants' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both feelings as well as being plural nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?

'new tea set pip' is the wordplay.
'new' indicates an anagram.
'tea'+'set'+'pip'='teasetpip'
'teasetpip' with letters rearranged gives 'APPETITES'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for appetites that I've seen is " Cravings".)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
