You do not want to see pictures of a cow that has injested foxtail. The seeds get caught in the soft palate of the mouth, leading to severe and painful (and horribly disgusting) infection.
To think that what I consider weed seeds were milled and cooked to form tasty noodles makes me take pause.
Very cool, as are all of your posts Cynthetiq!

I find it interesting that the Chinese society has found almost any thing that is edible can be turned into something palatable. From chicken feet to frog spit, bird's nest (bird spit) to century egg and preserved vegatables. Waste not want not I guess.
