Cuts down on dried fruit? (6)
I believe the answer is:
prunes
This clue could be a double definition.
'cuts down' is the first definition.
'prunes' can be an answer for 'cuts' ('prune' can be a synonym of 'cut'). I'm not sure about the 'down' bit.
'dried fruit?' is the second definition.
(I know this)
'on' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for prunes that I've seen before include "Plum fruit grown in Agen" , "Dried plums" .)
