Upgraded Food System

The Food system in Minecraft is.. kinda boring. If you look at pretty much anything else in the game, Building, Redstone, Combat, Potions, there's more to it. When it comes to Food, you farm or hunt, and then make those items into food items / better food items. Sometimes it can a little complex (like the cake) but that's pretty much it. I think that should change.

I would like to see Food become a bit more like Potion making, while also keeping a bit of what it currently has, so that it can get fairly complicated and interesting, but you don't need to get into the complicated stuff to survive.

Here's some ideas:

When you make a basic food item, you can then take it into a new Work Station. From there you can add various things to it. You can add other basic food items to make a bigger meal that would be more filling (but take longer to eat), you can add seasonings (like Sugar or Honey) to upgrade the effects of the food in various ways, and perhaps with certain ingredients, you could even add effects such as Speed and Strength to your food.

Those are just my thoughts on it, but however they do it, I think the Food System is do for an upgrade.

  Voted! I think the food system is really boring, you usually only eat one item, and most foods don't have a purpose. I think that Mojang should add some system where you have to eat a variety of food.

  After reading your feedback, i totally agree, it will be cool if mojang ameliorated the food system, they can do a mini upgrade of kitchen, adding more ingredients, they can add magical ones that will exist in the better caves, like sort of mushroom i dont know. it will be fun to add a receipe book

  I was thinking the exact same thing, I also think that bigger, more complex foods (such as cake or pumpkin pie, could reduce the need for eating as a "full" status effect.) I also have ideas for foods such as "the fruit bowl": combine 4 of either pumpkin, apple, sweet berries, chorous fruit, and watermelon, with a bowl. ANOTHER BIG THING, every time I see one I wonder, why no egg recipes! (besides cake) I think we should have more recipes with eggs as well as being able to put an egg in a furnace or food cooker to eat. That is all, thank you.

  I think they should mess around more with how long foods take to eat for greater variety and in order to encourage the player to have a more varied diet.

  They could make it so that if after eating 16 of one food type it will fill up slightly less haunches so that after you’ve eaten 96 of one food you will only get half the value as you did at the beginning. With some foods this process could be faster or slower because eating 32 pumpkin pies is more balanced than eating 32 pieces of plain bread.

  Secondary affects would also be nice affecting: strength, haste, swim speed, jump length etc..
