Popped Chorus Fruit is a smelted version of chorus fruit, obtained by cooking it in a furnace, smoker, or campfire. Unlike regular chorus fruit, it cannot be eaten and is mainly used as a crafting ingredient.

Popped Chorus Fruit is primarily used to craft purpur blocks, which are a key building material found in End Cities. It is also required to craft end rods, a decorative light source commonly used in building.

Since chorus fruit is renewable and farmable in the End, Popped Chorus Fruit is an important resource for players interested in building End-themed structures or crafting unique light sources.
