HONEY
Hello there fellow minecafters! I have come up with a suggestion honey! it can be obtained by right clicking sunflowers as it will drop 3-5 pollen. 9 pollen in a crafting table will craft a jar of honey which can be placed by right clicking the jar it will then attract the attention of passive mobs 2-12 blocks away. More uses are listed:
*traps!
*if you put under a food in crafting bench saturation will rise.
*use for sunflowers
*does not require bees!
*another thing to farm!
*can get the achivement sweetie!
Please give negative and positive criticism.
Maybe with this I could finally make a trap for more than just zombies.
Also, perhaps it could be eaten for, as someone above said, purely for saturation.
Support.

My avatar-Madison Gotha. She knows various weapons, she's a mage/sage, and is somewhat immortal. Madison has the capability of taming and communicating monsters, a genetic trait passed down by her father. 26 physically, 1400-something mentally, and a Lofty Peakian/Zenithian mix. Doesn't really like being called an elf and hates being called human..
I might be Moderator, but don't bother treating me too special. And don't make tons of Ban Hammer jokes, please. Also, I'm an Off-Topic only Mod. Don't ask me to lock a thread or something if it's not in the off-topic
I actually like this idea
How about for the recipe :
U surround glass bottle with 8 pollen?
This can give u bottle of honey.
U put it on a fence to attract only passive mobs within 10 blocks.
The mobs will not be always attracted.
And the mobs will drink/eat the honey, leaving an empty glass bottle.
So we cannot just leave the honey around, or the animals will consume it and leave?
No support. I'm not really sure what the point is. If passive animals were that close, you don't need to attract them. Plus, farming something isn't a reason to add it. You just don't farm something just to farm it. So for now, no support. Sorry.
What do you mean, "how is it pointless"? I just doesn't have a point? You can't explain how something doesn't have a point, it just doesn't. How about saying how it isn't pointless?
The crafting doesn't make much sense. Humans can't make honey from polle- well I suppose we COULD in a laboratory with the necessary enzymes.. which we would likely just extract from honeybees anyway- but Steve making honey from raw pollen.. the extraction of which is fairly impressive in of itself. No.
If you don't want much to do with bees, I'd suggest Steve gets a crafting recipe to make a hive which can then be placed. And eventually a swarm might enter and then be harvested for honey. Maybe a bee particle leaving the hive at irregular intervals and a buzzing sound when Steve approaches. Adjacent sunflowers improving the chance for a swarm perhaps.
Assuming you don't want to have a huge amount of UIs and unique items as a certain famous mod has for bee care.. breaking the hive to obtain the hive isn't unreasonable. Before modern hives were designed some people did use to destroy their swarms to obtain the honey. So long as the hive requires a respectable number of materials honey would remain a rare resource when compared to other farm-able items. An expensive hive could be broken for the block again, a slightly less expensive one might only result in some of the materials required.
As for it's use.. somewhat dubious. Why would a cow or sheep go after honey? It's not something wild animals normally encounter. I can see pigs seeking it, they have an impressive sense of smell and love of sweet things. But other passive mobs.. not so much. As a low-saturation foodstuff it doesn't have much use, other than rare melon that doesn't require dungeon delving. I'll leave how useful a passive mob attractor would be to other posters. Personally I'm fine with just luring them with held food and then breeding.
'Coating' foodstuffs seems more interesting. We Enchant gear, why not Flavour food? While the taste of beef steak and honey is perhaps not one I'm willing to experiment with, there is some potential in food modifiers. Salted porkchops, sweetened mushroom stew, spiced milk..
Unless you just intend for it to be a luxury food items as cookies once were pre-jungle cocoa. Guess it makes some sense then.
Overall, a couple of interesting ideas that falls short in common sense, obtaining and usage. No support.
There are a few grammatical errors in your post as well, and a typo on the thread tag I'm afraid.
You haven't played minecraft very much or been on this forum for a while, have you? Minecraft isn't realistic, like, at all. Plus, in the rules, it says don't be a grammar police.
sorry, i like the idea of honey, but the thing that makes this suggestion unique, the lack of bees, is what i don't like, it just seems that bees would be fun.
Bees have been suggested to death I didnt want to repost an idea srry.

Well its not pointless as it will bring a point to sunflowers thanks for your opnion.

Ok, let me get this straight. You something from sunflowers, which gives the sunflower a point. But the thing that gives the sunflower a point, has no point, so it still makes sunflowers pointless. Right?
you know what, support to an extent, it could be made better.
and to those who keep complaining about it being unrealistic, minecraft is unrealistic. that isn't much of a valid point.

I never said that it was unrealistic, it is just pointless. But, remember, minecraft isn't a game where everything and anything is possible. It has to be realistic to some extent.

How about this right now we use wheat which is harder to use in traps this however is easier hows that.
