Are you able to look through field and pick out edible plants? What if you get stuck in the woods or a swamp?
Will you perish from lack of knowledge?

I know a few. Acorns, for example, are inedible because of their high tannin content, but if you smash them and then wrap them in a piece of cloth or bag, find a stream or any moving water, and tie them in the water, the next morning all the tannins are gone, and the acorns can be boiled to make a nutty tasting mash.
I know how to find two edible mushrooms for sure...but that only works in the fall where I live. I know that the marines are forced to eat grubs as part of their survival training, and I know how to find grubs.
If I am near a marsh, I know that the roots of cattails are edible, and I know that queen anne's lace roots are actually wild carrots.
