Talk:Raw Porkchop

Merge
Should be combined with Grilled Pork. Edit: Whoops, first time through I forgot my sig. 99seconds 12:22, 17 November 2010 (CST)

I don't see why. Cooked Porkchops are a different item, have a different ID, heal more health, and have a different look. It makes perfect sense that this item would have its own page. --Technoman7 16:17, 7 July 2011 (UTC)

Mushrooms also have the same page, as Saplings, as Wood logs. C ali nou - talk × contribs » 18:20, 7 July 2011 (UTC)


 * It still mystifies me why Coal and Charcoal have separate pages. They have the same item ID, same function, and same icon.  Well, if they are different enough to have their own pages, I'm sure raw and cooked porkchops are, too.  Verhalthur (talk)(contribs) 18:31, 7 July 2011 (UTC)

1.8 Image
In 1.8, this will have a new image. Should we update it now or wait until then? (I also have an idea to upload it now, revert to the previous state, then when 1.8 comes out, revert it back) Cool12309(T 18:04, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

1.8 Image replaced, should be placed in gallery.
Please upload pork eating animation as other filename and include gallery tag. Tom.K 09:20, 29 August 2011 (UTC)

Cooked Porkchops new look?
I have no idea if this against wiki rules but...doesn't the 1.8 porkchop look like...that sprite should be only be dropped from Zombie Pigmen? It does looked spoiled.BlockBarracade 01:04, 9 September 2011 (UTC)

2 Sticks most efficient?
2 sticks equals 1 plank.

2 sticks = 1 cooked item. 1 plank = 1-1.5 cooked items.

64 sticks = 32 cooked items. 64 planks = 64-96 cooked items.

Converting planks to sticks takes time.

No matter how you look at it, planks are better in every way and you shouldn't take the time to turn your planks into sticks.

 * http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Stick *2 planks = 4 sticks. Your lack of basic Minecraft knowledge disturbs me. Assassin10


 * Here's my counter-argument --HexZyle 05:05, 14 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Could we compromise? Planks is as good as sticks or saplings? Assassin10

Raw Porkchop should have poisoning
If you think about it, pigs are very filthy, unclean animals. Especially if they are wild and uncleaned. I mean, if you can sometimes get sick from eating raw chickens, why wouldn't you get sick off of eating raw pork? I don't know, that's just me... I still think that it seems silly that you get sick off of raw chicken, but not raw pork.

The vast majority of food poisoning is caused by how the meat is processed, not the cleanliness of the animal. The way pork is processed in most countries makes it very rare for it to contain these contaminants - in fact it's usually as safe to eat rare/raw as beef (just as tasty too!). The problem with raw pork used to be a parasite called trichinella, but occurrences of this these days is practically nil. Processing for chicken on the other hand does make it risky to eat raw, so the Minecraft developers seem to be very up on food safety! Mk2mark 22:22, 13 February 2013 (UTC)
