Bowl

Bowls are containers made from Wooden Planks. Their only current use is to hold Mushroom Stew. The bowl that contains the mushroom stew is returned when the stew is consumed, and 3 planks craft 4 bowls; therefore, they can be crafted in small quantities and reused. They cannot be used as an alternative for Buckets, because they cannot hold water or lava. It is recommended to take stacks of bowls and mushrooms, as Mushrooms and bowls can be stacked, but Mushroom Stew cannot.

History
Bowls were first introduced in the Indev version 0.31 (January 30, 2010).

Using a stack of bowls on a mooshroom used to destroy the whole stack and only give you one bowl of mushroom stew. This was corrected in 1.2.5.

Usage
The Bowl is used to hold Mushroom Stew. This is currently the only use for the Bowl as of Version 1.0.0. Bowls cannot be used as Buckets to pick up, place, or hold water and lava. However, the player is allowed to "milk" Mooshrooms and fill the bowl with Mushroom Stew.

Trivia

 * Bowls can be made in Pocket Edition. But they can not be used to make mushroom soup, as mushroom soup cannot be crafted although mushrooms do exist.
