Cycling saddle corrodes (4)
I believe the answer is:
eats
This might be a double definition.
'cycling saddle' is the first definition.
The definition and answer can be both things that one consumes for nourishment as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see a link between them that I don't see?
'corrodes' is the second definition.
('eat' can be a synonym of 'corrode')
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for eats that I've seen before include "worrying" , "Sate (anag.)" , "Victuals" , "Commonly, they eliminate" , "Comestibles" .)
