Are Sage Seeds Edible?

Both of my sage plants bloomed. What's now left projecting from the plant are dried up stalks with little black seeds in brown seed heads/capsules. I am familiar with using dried sage leaves from the grocery store, but not the seeds. Are they edible? How to prepare for cooking?

i wouldnt eat the seeds.....cut your plants back, they will grow nice again in about 1 or 2 weeks""

I've never heard of eating the seeds but check out this site http://www.smallwonderfarm.com/herbs.htm
Most of the time when looking up an herb it would tell you if the seeds are used, if you don't see it, then its not.
