Morning glory & carob tree

Not sure about the seeds. But you can definitely munch on the casing/seed pod.

Two more photos added showing the carobs, Dan.

No, not unless one of the cats brings one in...it has happened! I do sometimes nibble at one while I'm picking them, but they're too sweet for me raw. I've tried carob bread, make with carob flower, but I didn't like it that much. I love the smell of them, though. Just down the road from where I live is the place where all the carobs are brought once collected and the smell this time of year is fantastic!

Carobs grow wild all over the place around here, it's a major industry at this time of year, picking the carobs (that's what I'll be doing over the next couple of weeks!) Carobs are also used in animal feeds, like guinea pig and rabbit food. I've missed flowering (which is fairly inconsequential, but next year I'll try to remember to take a photo) but I can get a shot of the beans, a close up, next time I'm out and put it with this spotting for now.
