Wild food

Not sure where to post this as it could cover many subjects, though I am thinking plants here...........
As a lot of you may know, I am into bushcrafting and love to sample what nature provides, so I was wondering, what plants etc do you know are edible and tasty in our countryside. Personally I like ramsons, blackberrys, wild strawberrys, nettle, pignuts and cleavers, to name a few.
I also need to state that anyone reading this thread would be recommended to make sure of identification and to take care before eating any species mentioned.
Also I need to state, please don't take plants from any area where permission is not granted and not to take from an area where the species is not abundant.
Saying this, we have a lot of wonderful edible plants and fungi in this country...............Jon
