Melon Slice

A melon slice is a food item that can be eaten by the player.

Drops
Melon slices drop from melons which generate naturally in jungles or can be grown from melon seeds found among chest loot in abandoned mineshafts, dungeons and woodland mansions.

Each melon normally drops 3–7 melon slices when broken or pushed by a piston, or 9 slices when broken by shears. Breaking a melon with a tool with the Fortune enchantment will increase the potential number of drops by 1 per level, to a maximum of 9 slices. Breaking a melon using an item with the Silk Touch enchantment will cause the melon to drop the melon block instead of melon slices.

Food
Eating a melon slice restores points of hunger and 1.2 points of hunger saturation.
