Minecraft has a lot of blocks, but what if they had more? Why do we need them? Please don't just add lists of things - these will be marked as spam and removed! Also, no furniture, guns, or vertical/"sideways"/"upright"/"standing" slabs (yes, we see you).

Effects from different foods

I’ve come to notice that once certain foods are easily obtained and readily available, most other food sources tend to no longer be used. After all once someone has a great golden carrot trade setup with a farmer who eats bread or potatoes anymore? What I would like to see is different effects from different foods. For example, chicken would provide feather falling so long as your satiation is full, salmon would provide respiration, bread would give extra defense, pork chops may give you strength bonuses and steak would just give very high levels of satiation. The effect would be limited, much less effective than a position for example. This would encourage the continued use of other forms of food.

    There is no reason for them to add more foods. If the food is good, we will only use it and never use the other foods. If the food is bad, no one will ever use it. With food effects, it would be way better and make more sense to have more than one source of food.

    This is a nice idea. It would encourage players to make more complex food items. Especcially if they were more potent. There is such solution in Stardew Valley and Graveyard Keeper and it really works out.

    There could be effects dedicated to certain aspects of the game. For example one food items gives you bonus crops while harvesting, other higher chance for tresure while fishing. 

    Nice change would be also a need to eat once a day. Then effect could stay with you for a whole day and hunger wouldn't be only a nuisance anymore. Eating another dish should replace previous effect or shouldn't be possible so player couldn't get overpowered.
