Sheepish remarks about bread fruit (7)
I believe the answer is:
bananas
'fruit' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'sheepish remarks about bread' is the wordplay.
'sheepish remarks' becomes 'baas' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'about' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'bread' becomes 'nan' (variant spelling of naan).
'baas' going around 'nan' is 'BANANAS'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for bananas that I've seen before include "Crazed" , "Mad - curved fruits" , "bats" , "Fruit - nuts" , "off 27 [TROLLEY]" .)
