The angiosperms include almost all edible plants. The non-angiosperm edibles (pine nut, Ginkgo nut, ferns, seaweeds which aren't technically plants...) are the exception rather than the rule. The average person could go quite a while without eating any gymnosperm plants, but almost never has a meal that doesn't include angiosperms.

Amborella (not edible?)
