Strip of meat’s good in France (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ribbon

'strip' is the definition.
(ribbon is a kind of strip)

'meat's good in france' is the wordplay.
'meat' becomes 'rib' (rib is a kind of meat).
'good in france' becomes 'bon' (French for 'good').
'rib'+'bon'='RIBBON'

'of' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for ribbon that I've seen before include "Fabric woven in strip" , "Thin strip of cloth" , "Narrow strip for tying or decoration" , "Streamer" , "Long, narrow band" .)

I've seen this clue in The Hindu.
