Right, this time, he’s included one top salad bunch of vegetables (8)
I believe the answer is:
radishes
'bunch of vegetables' is the definition.
'radishes' can be an answer for 'vegetables' (radish is a kind of vegetable). I am unsure of the 'bunch of' bit.
'right this time he's included one top salad' is the wordplay.
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'this time' becomes 'AD' (AD, Anno Domini, as opposed to BC, Before Christ).
'included' indicates putting letters inside.
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'top' suggests taking the first letters.
The initial letter of 'salad' is 's'.
'ad'+'hes'='adhes'
'i'+'s'='is'
'adhes' going around 'is' is 'adishes'.
'r'+'adishes'='RADISHES'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for radishes that I've seen before include "salad plants" , "Pungent roots for salads" , "Salad vegetables" , "Content of salad bowl" , "Fleshy roots for salads" .)
