So, I was brainstorming ideas for minecraft recently, and, whilst thinking of the biomes, I realised that some of the biomes implemented in the game aren't really of any significance.
Which, in turn, led me to think of this:
Corn.
But what significance would corn have? Well, My idea is that corn would be found on a plains biome, seeing as there is no current significance of the plains biome, as of Beta 1.3 (With any luck, Beta 1.4 soon enough :smile.gif: ).
Corn would probably grow like a reed (or sugar cane), but with a tan stalk. However, at the top, there would be a notable corn cob. I think that this would be a bit hard for Notch to code, as there would be two different reed like structures stacked on top of each other, but he would doubtlessly think of a way.
Anyways, only the top would drop something of interest, which would obviously be the corn cob (I'll get back to that in a second). Although, the stalk would stay there when the top was destroyed.
The bottom and center of the corn stalk would also drop an object; however, this would be a different item, called a corn stalk, which could be replanted, like with reeds.
Corn cobs could be crafted into yet another item, called corn kernals (or corn meal, possibly).
Basically, just like with bones or flowers:
[] [] []
[] [] --> x3 (corn meal or corn kernals).
[] [] []
Corn meal could be a useful ingredient in soups, cereal, or whatever Notch thinks up!

I will be using them soon
I'm Starting to be known as a Balancer, A.K.A. I'm starting to become pessimist
I literally spent half an hour searching on google to make sure that there was not already another corn thread :tongue.gif:
