But then again, you do spawn in the shire, where you can stay, mine, and raid food easily

The Shire is a very neutral place for the player to start and gather basic supplies for the long journey they make for themselves. If you desire a big challenge, go to Utumno. It's a long ways away from the safety of the Shire, and everything in there wants you dead. Balrogs, orcs, wargs, trolls, etc. on top of a series of floors you must survive until you reach a point where you need to escape through very specific means.
