    Yes, sufficient Vitamin C is in raw liver.

    Before the age of human agriculture we were endurance hunters. Don’t believe me? Go survive off of random unidentified plants for a while. (Don’t actually, you’ll be dead in a month tops).

      That’s discounting the cultural plant knowledge that those hunter gatherers had.

      100k years of ‘Don’t eat that, it kill Grog remember?’ can lead up to a pretty extensive safe list of wild plants as well as a bunch of useful healing herbs.

      We’ve long since forgotten most of it, having not needed it since agriculture.
