a few berries in the game are actually worth gathering as they have a decent amount of nutrition, i think namely cloudberries, and maybe crowberries?
i can't speak to the nutritional value of cloudberries in real life, but in a survival situation, berries are not enough to keep you alive in real life. they were an important part of the hunter-gatherer diet, because they added needed vitamins and were so easy to gather that even a small child or pregnant woman could do it while others were hunting. but in general, they were not a primary source of sustenance.
