Barbie products possibly wear out (6)

Double definition, both of them somewhat cryptic. Australian slang for food, for example something cooked on a barbie (Australian for barbecue); or as in “best bib and tucker” = formal clothes for going out = wear out.

[UPDATE: As KVa and Hovis have pointed out in the comments, “tucker” is also a slang word for tire out = exhaust: “I’ve had a long day and I’m tuckered”. I hadn’t come across that, but it may well be what Grecian intended for the second meaning.]
