Food balancing

Let’s face it - nobody, ever, uses any food other then the few popular types - steak, mutton, maybe chicken, sometimes mushroom stew. Those are the only types of food we ever use - but there are a lot more, more then you would expect - for example, did you know there is beetroot stew? I certainly didn’t. I’ve never even picked up a beetroot and eaten it, let alone farm them. I, personally, don’t think this should be the case - there are so many cool food items, and none of them are used! To fix this, we need to do at least one of these: -Nutrition, as another poster has suggested. If you only eat steak,you won’t be healthy - you’ll need to eat a variety of foods, otherwise you won’t gain as much hunger from eating “normal” foods, will take more damage, won’t heal as fast, etc. This could work well, or could end up just being annoying - cough cough phantoms cough -Making certain crops better. Imagine if beetroot stew was as easy to make as bread, but had better stats. This would work well, but then we would need to: -Make crops only grow in their natural biome. e.g. beetroots will only grow in acacia biomes (or whatever biome makes the most sense) but are very good food, and not many other crops grow in that biome, meaning it makes sense to just use beetroots. Personally, I think this is the best solution, buffing crops and changing how they grow. If you have any other solutions / suggestions, let me know (:
