Melon slices are a food item obtained by breaking melon blocks, which can be grown from melon seeds planted on farmland. Each melon block drops 3-7 melon slices, making them a renewable and efficient food source.

Eating a Melon Slice restores two hunger points, but its low saturation makes it less effective than other foods. Melon slices can be crafted into melon seeds for farming or combined into a melon block for storage.

They are also used to craft glistering melons, which are a key ingredient in brewing Potions of Healing. Melons generate naturally in jungles, villages, and woodland mansions, making them a useful crop for food, farming, and potion-making.
