Fare taken aboard from a car on island (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

macaroni

'fare' is the definition.
(macaroni is a kind of food)

'aboard from a car on island' is the wordplay.
'aboard' says the answer is hidden in the clue (the answer is aboard or within the clue).
'MACARONI' is hidden in the letters of 'from a car on island'.

'taken' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for macaroni that I've seen before include "Italian fare" , "Tubular pasta" , "Short narrow tubes of pasta" , "Pasta in long tubes" , "With which one tube-feeds" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
