When hiking or going through a park you don’t see wild vegetables such as head of lettuce or zucchini? Or potatoes?
Also never hear of survival situations where they find potatoes or veggies that they lived on? (I know you have to eat a lot of vegetables to get some actual nutrients but it has got to be better then nothing)
Edit: thank you for the replies, I’m not an outdoors person, if you couldn’t tell lol. I was viewing the domesticated veggies but now it makes sense. And now I’m afraid of carrots.

All of those are domesticated versions of plants that were once found in the wild. We bred them to grow for us under certain conditions to yield as much edible parts as possible. You may be able to find certain edible plants slightly resembling their domesticated counterparts parts but it won’t be as big and they arent as wide spread. We are also domesticated and many of us don’t know what to look for. Much like cattle and chickens don’t really thrive in the wild.
