garden weeds are best pulled rather than sprayed if they are near vegetables or fruit.
NO. BE VERY CAREFUL AS MOST WEEDKILLERS ARE TOXIC. THE BEST WAY IN A VEG GARDEN IS TO EITHER PULL THEM BY HAND (DIG OUT LONG ROOTED WEEDS) OR HOE REGULARLY.
With veggies, I would strictly dig out or use something non-toxic, like boiling water.
