Voracious; famished (6)
I believe the answer is:
hungry
I believe this clue is a double definition.
'voracious' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)
'famished' is the second definition.
(similar in meaning)
(Other definitions for hungry that I've seen before include "Empty" , "hoping for a bite?" , "Short of food" , "In need of nourishment" , "Peckish" .)
