Pig or bloke drinking squash? Quite the other way round (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gourmand

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

'pig' is the definition.
(both can mean someone who enjoys food)

'bloke drinking squash? quite the other way round' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'bloke' could be 'man' (informal term for a man) and 'man' is present in the answer.
'squash?' could be 'gourd' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'gourd' is located in the remaining letters.
No letters remain.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'or' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for gourmand that I've seen before include "one putting loads away?" , "he'll swallow plenty" , "pig" , "Serious eater" , "One keen on eating" .)
