Some breakfast, for example, was kept in another fridge (5,3)
I believe the answer is:
fried egg
'some breakfast' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both things that one consumes for nourishment as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see an association between them that I can't see?
'was kept in another fridge' is the wordplay.
'was' becomes 'eg' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'kept in' is an insertion indicator.
'another' is an anagram indicator.
'fridge' anagrammed gives 'friedg'.
'eg' put inside 'friedg' is 'FRIED EGG'.
'for example' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for fried egg that I've seen before include "Breakfast favourite" , "Accompaniment to bacon" , "Yellow and white cooked item" , "Feature of an English breakfast" .)
