Yes, it it's bermuda grass and it has seed heads in the clippings. I
don't recommend grass clippings for vegetable gardens in the south.
The north is a different thing.

Actually we usually use grass clippings and it always seems to work,
but I'm always afraid they will start growing and I will have all that
grass to pull all summer long. Do I have anything to worry about?

You could use the poor mans mulch-- grass clippings. Save your clippings let
them dry if you like and then spread. you can just spread out fresh cut
clippings but becare full not to spread to deep. The composting heat could
damage your plants. Also, green clippings tend to mat up an will not allow
water to flow through them. I will ditto that alfalfa hay is probably the
best veggie mulch.

Have Fun

Is it advisable to use mulch in a vegetable garden to keep the weeds
down? If so, any recommendations on the best type of mulch to use?
