Food to fight for? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

buns

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'for?' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are singular nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?

'food to fight' is the wordplay.
'food' becomes 'bun' (bun is a kind of food).
'to fight' becomes 's' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'bun'+'s'='BUNS'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for buns that I've seen before include "Small rolls" , "Cakes" , "Food items" .)
