My favorite food by far is now carrots. They are so useful, relatively easy to get, produce large quantities, and restore 2 bars. Since they have been in I seriously haven't touched any other food source. Anyone else think they're so great? I mean compared to other foods, there is no work involved hardly.
How're they so useful? o_o They're basically wheat, but you can breed pigs and you can't make bread with it. I guess the fishing rod with the carrot is kinda cool, but that's more of a novelty thing.
Farmer villagers never want to trade emeralds for 'em either.
Well it takes 3 wheat to make bread, which is only half a bar more. Then when you break wheat it only gives you 1 to 2 wheat while carrots always give 2 to 3. So basically they produce twice as much. And each one is edible, so you don't have to combine them.
since they nerfed villager trading, wheat is a better crop. it can be traded directly, or used to breed cows, who give trade-able beef and leather, necessary for books.
i use carrots to breed pigs to trade as well, but i noticed they can be a good food source.
Cake is a pain in the balls though, way to much work. Also potatoes are bad to turn poisonous and don't restore as many bars as a carrot unless you cook them, which takes time and resources. I'm gonna turn orange from eating all these carrots.
They are produced at the same rate.
Can eat raw.
Can be cooked to get you ----4!----- hearts.
When cooked gives half the experience of iron, wich in large farms, is A LOT.
Carrots are wood at starts tough..
Potatoes can be poisenous ones. You need to cook them in order to restore more than a 1/2 heart, which uses fuel and time and once cooked, you cant replant them.

Personally I still prefer wheat though. It looks really pretty growing in my texture pack and I can trade villagers with it.
And I love breeding my cows. <3

You're trading wheat for villagers?!

I only grow wheat to breed cows.
