Dewberries are so fucking delicious. I used to go pick them and make dewberry pie as a kid. God I miss that, they don't grow where I live rn ๐Ÿ˜”

There's so much hogweed all over the UK that's just sitting there, uneaten. Not the giant stuff, that's not a fun time. But the regular stuff has good flavour

Also tons of wild garlic when the seasons in

You only need to plant sorrel in your garden once. It's the ultimate volunteer crop. Quite winter-hardy too, and perennial, plus it tastes like lemon. Halfway between an herb and a green.

Do people (in general) really only eat 100 different plants? I feel like that number must be too low. Surely if you listed out all the plant foods that people consider "normal", there would easily be more than 100.
