Native forest doesn't have all that much that is edible. The polynesians would have starved if they had not brought their canoe plants.
Some people will say that strawberry guava is food. True, it won't kill you and you will starve more slowly with it than without it, but it doesn't meet my definition of food, not when suppressing it would result in more productive agriculture due to fruit fly control.
