Fooks is probably the closest you come in English to the correct pronunciation of Fuchs. The 'oo' sound should be short though.

It means 'fox' in German.

That makes it clear. There are those that might pronounce it f-youshes

"Lupines" are one kind of very tasty Italian beans.

Lupins, in English.
Lupini, in Italian.
Yes, it's a legume seed.

Typically not eaten as in, say, stews, but roasted and salted , as snacks.

It's the first time I've heard something like this, and they certainly don't eat like this here in Italy or in Europe.
Probably in some remote Asian region, perhaps.

AFAIK lupin beans are mostly eaten in brine in jars, and in my area (and not only) many people sell them loose, obviously by weight, from large brine drums.

They are healthy and very good accompanied by cold lager beer.

Its presence is mentioned in some preparations (for example olives, just because they are also eaten in brine) since lupin beans can be allergenic and therefore trigger allergic reactions.
Its presence must currently be mentioned by law.

Those are lupine seeds?
