I've always been a casual forager - growing up camping and hiking - I always enjoyed the hunt for wild edibles.
More recently I've been doing some city foraging (AKA dumpster diving) - and had a lot of success this last summer. Incredible what people throw out.
My neighbour survived for 8 months strictly on city-foraged foods. It was quite a feat.
