WILD RICE: both the grains at the shaft tips, and the swelled, swollen stems of the plant when infected by smut fungus, can be eaten together (and yes, that is the actual terminology:「smut fungus」). WILD RICE is not naturally sticky as is the usual type of white rice eaten in China and Japan, hence grains can easily be eaten one at a time, if desired (not so generally with sticky blob rice). Stems must be infected with smut fungus and are best eaten just before turning black and dis-integrating, while「on the verge」good advice when foraging for meat after a battle, too. Aquatic grasses grow with the base of the shaft deeply embedded in muck.
　Note that Chiang Kai-shek was the generalissimo at war with the Chinese communists during and subsequent to World War II, and fled to what is today known as Taiwan…not a much-loved historical figure by the Red communists.

Always keep in mind that these glyphs were originally created by groups of clever old men as vulgar riddles and analogies for their own entertainment (see 籒 for that) and represented Chinese society many thousands of years ago, and not as a written or spoken language. If these glyphs had been intended for language use, the sages could not have possibly designed a worse system. Is it truly possible that all these glyphs started out as off-color jokes and puzzles? Yes! It is! Sex had no shame in ancient China. Why would it? And now, there is a cover-up. No one is suggesting these glyphs depict contemporary life in China, Japan, or anywhere else. This site describes glyph meanings, not people. These glyphs however, describe many and various things, including people, long before there were any notions of becoming politically incorrect. The question to be answered is, should these glyphs continue being used, by anyone, anywhere, for expressing language? (More...) Despite how bad the human world is today, do you actually believe that the so-called good old days were any better? Or they could only have been worse?

By the way, with a limited number of the same elements used by the sages again and again to form these glyphs, you should expect to find the same explanations again and again, as tedious as that may become, and as an inherent trait of any dictionary. This site explains the dual meanings of glyphs most often ignored by other sources that provide you with only the sanctioned definition, generally.
