I think cheese would be a good addition to Minecraft.
The whey 😄 to make it would be to get milk and put it into the either furnace or crafting table
(crafting table) put milk and sugar into crafting table (more sugar means you regain food bars quicker).
(furnace) put milk into furnace and cook.
If you kill a cow by burning it maybe it could also give cheese every now and then.
Cheese could be used to craft a cheesecake. Cheese + cake = cheesecake.
(Major gasp in background) Dude! Cheese Cake! I'm down. You and me are master chefs my friend(because I also have a list of foods as well. Not taking your idea).
I had the same idea!
Mine is a bit different though, but I'll comment it here because I don't think we're supposed to make separate posts for the same thing.
Obtaining:
I thought it would be cool if cheese was made in a cauldron. Milk could be placed in a cauldron and then after a while automatically convert into cheese (this makes some sense for soft cheeses). Once it has converted to cheese the player can take it out of the cauldron by right clicking on it.
When the cauldron is full of milk the player would be able to take the milk back out with a bucket if they wanted to, but would not be able to take any milk out with water bottles. The time for the milk to convert to cheese would be similar to the time it takes a cactus to grow. A cauldron full of milk would output a signal strength of 3.
When the cauldron is full of cheese the player would be able to take it out of the cauldron by right clicking on it and the cheese item would pop off in the same way bonemeal would pop off a composter. A hopper could also be used to automatically suck out the cheese item. A cauldron full of cheese would output a signal strength of 4.
Usage:
Cheese would restore 7 hunger points (3.5 haunches) and have a saturation of 13, making it a decent food source. It would also stack to 64.
Or pizza, yoghurt...
Maybe cheese can be placed like cake and can be occasionally found in dungeons
