You don't randomly forage everything you see? If I find any items that are semi-useful, I grab them. It's something that has saved my life on multiple occasions when I eat poisoned food or I get unlucky with swimming, I search "Herb" and find a herbal remedy I got from the shipwreck, or a regular herb I found on flax.

It also means I never have to go out and get anything in the late-late game, since I've collected so much random stuff that I probably have at least one of the item I wanted.
