  1. Yeah, cooked porkchops are the best. 🙂 I found it somewhat annoying how golden carrots seem to take longer to heal than the other. Plus, porkchops are nostalgic, because it was the first meat in the game. And they're super easy to get now, through villagers and hoglins, and so we can leave the cute pigs be.

  2. Pretty sure healing is saturation based is it not? so I don’t understand how a pork chop would heal more. Also if you heal to full and still need some more hearts your saturation would be used up anyway so I don’t think being able to eat more often is a good thing. I could be completely wrong

  3. Woah, the hearts are separate from the saturation?? I thought it was just dependent on hunger, and then saturation meant you got more healing because it took out saturation before hunger (sort of a more hunger per hunger situation). Huh.

  4. Counterpoint: it's not the best food source, but it's fully AFK-able even when the player isn't around: cooked chicken
    Save your emeralds for actually useful purchases

  5. I can make corrections here:
    1. Healing is more saturation-based than hunger-based. A full hunger bar can only heal one heart and then stops, so giving more hunger doesn't actually mean anything when you want to heal.
    2. That "instant health regeneration" you mentioned is triggered by having spare saturation points and so, by that logic, golden carrots heal more. This can clearly be seen with AppleSkin installed.

  6. This just not true, you heal based on saturation meaning enchanted golden apples are the best because they can stack saturation and golden apples are second because they can do the same, however from all reasonable foods golden carrots are the best for saturation because no one's gonna be eating suspicious stew of saturation.

  7. Well, with farmer villagers you can us the same villager to easily get the emeralds through pumpkins and melons, and I prefer golden carrots since you need to eat less often if you are just building

  8. YES. This is what I've been saying! In every world if I need food it's super easy to convert wood into food by trading sticks with a Fletcher to get emeralds and to level up the butcher to trade for pork chops (or chicken, if you get unlucky) to have a ton of long lasting food.
