Costa recalled seedy nuts, as seen below (5-3)
I believe the answer is:
birds-eye
'seen below' is the definition.
The answer and definition are different parts of speech. However, adjectives and past participle verbs occasionally mean the same thing.
'costa recalled seedy nuts' is the wordplay.
'costa' becomes 'rib' (synonyms).
'recalled' says the letters should be written backwards (to recall can mean to bring something back).
'nuts' indicates an anagram (nuts can mean crazy).
'rib' written backwards gives 'bir'.
'seedy' is an anagram of 'dseye'.
'bir'+'dseye'='BIRDS-EYE'
'as' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for birds-eye that I've seen before include "Frozen food pioneer" , "This view is a general one from above" , "Clarence --, frozen foods pioneer (d. 1956)" , "Kind of speedwell" , "View from a height" .)
