No wheat in white meat? That comes as a piece of news! (4)
I believe the answer is:
item
'a piece of news' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'no wheat in white meat? that comes' is the wordplay.
'ITEM' is hidden within the letters.
However, I am uncertain how the hidden word is indicated.
'as' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for item that I've seen before include "Part of a list" , "See couple" , "Something on list" , "One thing on a list" , "Matter" .)
