Shedding tears due to oddly spicy dish, perhaps, and eating only half (6)
I believe the answer is:
crying
'shedding tears' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'oddly spicy dish perhaps and eating only half' is the wordplay.
'oddly spicy dish' becomes 'cr' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'perhaps' becomes 'y' (I've seen this in other clues).
'and' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'only half' suggests halving the letters.
'eating' halved is 'ing'.
'cr'+'y'+'ing'='CRYING'
'due to' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for crying that I've seen before include "Shame may be" , "Shedding tears" , "Tearful" , "Sobbing" , "Lachrymose" .)
