= Hunger = Hunger is now a new feature in Minecraft which can get many people confused, and more likely to die from hunger than from creepers. This is a tutorial to manage your hunger slightly carefully. And questions or suggestions should be reported to the discussion page instantly. More info about Hunger can be found in it's own page.

Food
This is now part of your honorary survival tactic as of 1.8. Food is now excluded from Healing you directly, only to fill your hunger bar up. At 0 Food levels, you WILL start taking damage. here is some foods that can help you, but not all is helpful in one way.

Cookies
They are a basic, easy to craft, food supply. with 8 per crafting, these are an easy, on the go, meal. However, filling up only half a bar, a single craftings worth heals as much as a Cooked Porkchop. You should mostly use this in order to fill up your hunger bar quickly.

Beef/Porkchop
Delicous and nutrient inducing meat, this should be easy to get right off the bat. Cows and Pigs Roam everywhere. When cooked, the both heal for 4 levels each. However, in already-generated chunks, animals spawn very rarely. This should be a temporary food service, and we suggest that you should start farming after the first few days.

Apple
A nice, delicate treat for any MineCraftier, this apple is actually pretty rare to find. Worse yet, they only heal 2 levels. We suggest that you should wait to craft a Golden Apple before eating this regular apple, or get some mods that,Make apples easier to find

Bread
One of the most eaten objects in MineCraft, Bread should be an everyday meal to anyone. Easy to make, and only heals 2.5 levels, 4 should fill your hunger easily. Of course, Tall grass needs to be harvested in order to the seeds, and well, we feel sorry if you spawn in an endless desert.

Cake
We assure you, Cake is probably the most Fragile and wanted foods in MineCraft. Many Multiplayer Greifers either take the cake or eat it or just destroy it. It's quite a pain to craft, but it heals 6 levels, two batches should fill up you quite nicely.

Mushroom Stew
A messy and most likely poisonous meal thanks to that red mushroom, nevertheless, Mushroom Stew is quite afforable and hunger satisfying meal. 4 levels, just like Steak, but quicker and less brutal to obtain. Mushroom Farms should be made in order to use your mushrooms wisley. Sadly, it does not stack.

Melon
An easy fruit, the Melon slice can be obtained by harvesting a Melon Block. Each slice heals 1 level, but you should get alot of them through Melon Farming. However, Abandoned Mineshafts hold the only way to obtain them, so we hope that you have a bucket of Milk with you when you're near alot of Cobwebs.
