It depends entirely on the species of Ficus. Some species of Ficus are edible, some are not.
For example, the the fruit of the common landscaping vine called Creeping Fig, or Ficus pumila, will make you sick if you eat it. However, the fruit of the Common Fig, or Ficus carica, is tasty and is grown commercially for its fruit.

Is rubber tree is a flowering plant?
The common rubber tree (Ficus Elastica) or rubber plant if grown indoors is a species of fig tree and is totally related to the edible figs that you buy in the grocery or the fig tree in the bible. It is also a brother of the banyan tree(Ficus Benghalensis) and the sacred Bo/bodhi/sacred fig tree(Ficus Religiosa). All the species from this Genus(Ficus) do not produce flowers that are visible but rather produce flowers that are inside the fruit (the figs). So the rubber plant produces flowers that are inside the fruit and are not visible outside. That's why you never see rubber trees or all Ficus trees flower ever. I hope this answers the question.
