answers:
az_lender say: In the USA, instead of shopping only at supermarkets, try "farmer's" markets, ethnic markets (such as Mexican, Indian, Chinese), and specialized produce markets. You can find much more variety than what is offered in the major supermarket chains.

William say: Supply and Demand usually determines which articles and foodstuffs are for sale at all stores. I would recommend you get a book on edible plants, their growing region, etc., and go on a lot of hikes and just pick them yourself.

Paula say: Price
People tend to buy the cheaper foods
So supermarkets stock more of the food that people mostly buy.
Cheaper foods tend to be more abundant on farms. eg corn verses strawberries.

So the price of corn is less than strawberries (per weight).
So people buy more corn than strawberries.
And more so for less common foods.

It is the same in any country.
Products that get sold in large quantities have the lowest price.

another example is the price of peanuts verses Brazil nuts
