Potato

Potatoes are a food item that can be planted, consumed or cooked in a furnace to make Cooked Potatoes. When consumed, they restore 1 hunger point. Potatoes can be farmed and harvested on farmland, the same way as farming wheat and carrots. When farmed, they will take 4 stages to grow rather than the normal 8 for wheat. Fully grown potato crops drop 1 to 4 potatoes and have a 2% chance of dropping an additional Poisonous Potato. Currently, potatoes can be found as a rare drop from zombies and also in NPC Villages alongside wheat. Bone meal can be used to immediately mature the potato to its last stage of growth, but fortune tools do not have any effect on potato crops.
