Here you have Kamariah harvesting the bamboo shoot. She had given a call to the lecturer who planted the bamboo and asked if she could have the shoot. Here in Malaysia, the shoot or rebung is used for culinary purposes. For your information, bamboo shoots are young, new canes that are harvested for food before they are two weeks old or one-foot tall. Though the shoot here was about 2 feet tall, it still could be eaten.
Japanese scientists recently discovered that bamboo shoots contain anti-cancer agents and making them a regular part of your diet effectively eliminates the free radicals that can produce dangerous carcinogens.
