Potato
Potatoes are a food crop in Minecraft that can be grown by planting them on farmland. Once fully grown, breaking the crop yields 1-4 potatoes, making them a renewable and efficient food source.
Potatoes can be eaten raw, though they only restore one hunger point. Cooking them in a furnace, smoker, or campfire turns them into baked potatoes, which provide much better hunger restoration. There is also a chance to harvest poisonous potatoes, which can be eaten but have a chance to inflict the Poison effect for a few seconds.
Potatoes are naturally found in village farms and can also be obtained as a rare drop from zombies, husks, and zombie villagers. They are useful for farming, trading with farmer villagers, and as a reliable mid-game food source.
