10a re 'grub' answer. Please can anyone explain! We know grub=food but can't understand the rest of the clue!

[puzzlebabe]

Hi Azalel. Grub is separated into G-rub. G is the (musical) note G, and rub means the central problem or issue, as when Hamlet says "Ay, there's the rub" in the famous soliloquy "To be, or not to be". Best wishes, puzzlebabe.
