Nutty things to eat? (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

crackers

This clue is a double definition.

'nutty' is the first definition.
(synonyms)

'things to eat?' is the second definition.
(crackers are a type of biscuit)

(Other definitions for crackers that I've seen before include "Mad - biscuits" , "Crazy - (American) biscuits" , "Thin biscuits for cheese" , "one may find them on the table tomorrow" , "Christmas items" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
