I just spent a good 15 minutes harvesting wild raspberries on Staten Island!
I find that usually when people see me eating mint (grows wild everywhere) or mulberries (ditto) or grapes or cherries or whatever else I find growing wild, they tell me it's not safe. They really think that food can only be trusted from the store!
I even find homeowners telling me that, and being startled when I knock on their doors to ask if they mind me taking their cherries or figs or whatnot that otherwise (I see year after year) they let drop all over the ground. They don't realize that in their own yard they have edibles.
