Rat Tailed Radish (I think)

I found these rather striking seed pods growing at the foot of a hedgerow along the footpath this morning while out walking.

I don’t recall seeing them before so I have had to resort to Google Lens to try and ID them

It suggests Rat Tailed Radish..Raphanus Caudatus.

It can be cultivated - for the pods not the roots. They are said to be crunchy and spicy. Not going to risk picking these wild ones…
