62 Edible Wild Plants That You Didn’t Know You Can Eat<\/a><\/h3>\n
\n

You\u2019re \u00a0in the woods with some friends and realise neither of you\u00a0packed enough food, what\u2019s your first instinct? I certainly wouldn\u2019t panic and neither should you. You are probably armed with tools<\/a>\u00a0in your backpack. Combine that with\u00a0the Earth vast variety of natural foods; you should have little problem in getting\u00a0nourishment\u200b<\/s>. What then are those food that aren\u2019t only found in restaurants or grocery stores?<\/p>\n

This variety of foods include; wild berries, edible plants and even seeds! Sounds questionable? No need to worry as these wild edible plants, berries and seeds, are totally safe for consumption as long as you are certain of their identity when collecting.<\/p>\n

If you are at any point unsure of the plant, you can perform the Universal Edibility Test<\/a>. But! If you not one hundred percent sure of the plant that you are identifying, I would advise against consuming it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
