Amazing! now that's a coincidence, I usually don't miss the "giggle" posts. I guess I have no choice but to respond with this.

My thoughts exactly, reminded me of E. Gibbons from the 70's "many parts are edible"

What are those?

Typha, I believe. Sometimes called "cattail" (there are several varieties, e.g., "broadleaf cattail," ",common cattail.")

For obvious reasons, in the United States it is sometimes called "corndog grass*."

*[Edit: I'm sure this is relatively recent term though; corndogs have a limited history.]

Quite interesting.
