Rotten Flesh

When you hear "rotten flesh" what comes to mind? A useless item you can feed to your dog or eat it (if you're desperate enough). 

So my suggestion is this...

Why not have us be able to throw it into the compost for bonemeal? That way, you don't have to throw away any rotten flesh you collect. Plus, it would also be nice if you got a bit more compost when you throw in the rotten flesh. The same amount of compost (or more) you get when you put in saplings or berries.

It isn't much of a change, but it is something I would absolutely love to see in the game at some point in the future.

    Suggestion: Give Rotten Flesh More Uses

    Rotten flesh has few applications, so I’d like to suggest a few ways to make it more useful.

    Accelerate Copper Oxidation

    It would be interesting to allow rotten flesh to accelerate the oxidation of copper blocks. Currently, waiting for copper to oxidize naturally is quite frustrating, especially for builds requiring large quantities at various stages. Just as honeycomb can wax copper to prevent oxidation, rotten flesh could serve the opposite function: accelerating oxidation.

    Make Rotten Flesh Compostable

    It would also be interesting to allow rotten flesh to be placed in a composter. It makes sense for an organic item like this to be compostable, and it would add value to a resource that tends to accumulate in large quantities.

    Add a Hunger Potion

    A Hunger Potion could utilize the mechanic already associated with rotten flesh. Eating rotten flesh can inflict the Hunger effect, causing the hunger bar to deplete faster. The potion could accelerate the loss of saturation and hunger, allowing the player to eat again sooner.

    It could also have interesting combat applications, causing an opponent to lose hunger faster and forcing them to use more resources to stay healthy.
