Street battle over heartless boy snatching stray food (10)
I believe the answer is:
strawberry
'food' is the definition.
(I know that strawberry is a food)
'street battle over heartless boy snatching stray' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'street' could be 'st' (abbreviation) and 'st' is located in the answer.
'boy' could be 'ber' and 'ber' is found in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for strawberry that I've seen before include "Fruit - kind of blonde" , "bush" , "summer delight" , "Sort of blonde" , "For duke, leaves" .)
