Time for another bit to eat? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

seconds

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

'bit to eat?' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'time for another' is the wordplay.
'time' becomes 'second' (unit of time).
'for' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'another' becomes 's' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'second'+'s'='SECONDS'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for seconds that I've seen before include "Supports motion" , "in a minute!" , "not for long periods?" , "More food!" , "They should be present at a duel" .)
