Bowl

Bowls are containers made from Wooden Planks. Their only use currently is to hold Beetroot Soup and Mushroom Stew. The bowl that contains the soup is returned when the stew is consumed. They cannot be used as an alternative for Buckets, because they cannot hold water, lava, or milk, although a Mooshroom can be "milked" for stew. It is recommended to take stacks of bowls and mushrooms, as Mushrooms and bowls can be stacked, but Mushroom Stew cannot. They can be obtained by crafting a "bucket" from wood, fishing, or forming a Nether Reactor.
