  4. @Hobbes: Right, an anagram.

    Hints for the remaining two:

    Azed 1863: Eater welcomes this caviar in post-Lenten communication? (7)

    The definition is "this caviar". One of those rare clues in which the definition is not at the start/end.

    Jumbo 763: Looking ridiculous after carelessly consuming chocolate at Easter? (4,3,2,4,4)

    A d&cd clue. Think of chocolate in the context of Easter.
