How the clue works
Have a look at food parcel sitting at the end — that's your definition, since a Chinese takeaway is exactly that, food you carry off home. The rest is all anagram fodder: "Why eat anise cake" gets jumbled up, with "confection" telling you to mix those letters together, and out pops CHINESE TAKEAWAY.
