Spears eaten as a vegetable (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

asparagus

(Other definitions for asparagus that I've seen before include "Plant with edible shoots" , "Green shoots, cooked and eaten as a vegetable" , "Food" , "cat in dramatic situation" , "Vegetable delicacy" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
