Masticates (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

chews

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">masticates</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I know this)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for chews that I've seen before include "toffees" , "bites" , "Masticates" , "Does something with tooth" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent and The Telegraph.
