My favorite here is the highest listed perennial tussock-forming grass widespread in Africa at 12.2% Themeda triandra has not shown up on any food lists I've seen. In either of it's English names whether that be as "Red Grass" or "Red Oat Grass."
Or a very regular succulent high on the list, (23.5%) English known as Arabian Wax Leaf, Peruvian Grape Ivy, Venezuelan Treebine, or Succulent Grape. The Latin for this is Cissus rotundifolia.
I'll be checking out local sources for both of these, the grass and the succulent.

@Tom have you ever seen "red grass" or "red oat grass" for sale any where? I know I haven't but then I've always just gone off the pasture mix up here.

Red grass might be in the lawn mixes I've seen. Might be an idea to check that?
