Water arum (Calla palustris) has edible fruits, rhizomes, and seeds.

More info on Plants for a Future.

Special note: I do encourage anyone wanting to forage for the plants I post about to read the highly informative Plants for a Future entries linked, but to be brief, the calcium oxalates in water arum can’t be boiled out. You have to dry them completely before cooking and consuming.
