That does not kill them :(
No plant is magic. If you cut shoots, eat them, and repeat, eventually the rhizome will run out of energy.
Not with knotweed. It can manifest above ground growth in a few different ways, it can form a moss like layer.
Pulling the shoots also leaves chunks of root in the ground, which will start new plants.
And good luck eating enough once it spreads.
You can control it if you catch it early by covering it with black tarp, but if you miss a bit, you wasted all the effort.
Knotweed remediation is hard.
