Below I have listed my recent ideas of things I think would be cool additions to Minecraft. Please remember these ideas may be well thought out, but are still somewhat rough, and are not yet "polished". Hope you can find things to add, or subtract from these ideas with good reason. (No really. I do. If with good reason, it'll make the game better ;D) So here they are:
The one idea that all the others built off of was the concept of being able to grow olives. In each plant grown you would get a young olive tree. (Much like the regular planted saplings, but with a different look) When fully grown, instead of just bearing saplings, the trees would also "release" olives when you break the leaf blocks, which would only get released about 40% of the time, giving a player about 8 olives per mid-sized tree. Once you have the olives, you have a number of choices you can choose to do with them.
1. You can eat them. (I was thinking eating them would give you only a half a heart due to the amount of olives you get)
2. You can use them to power lanterns. (Which you and I both know a lot of people want in the game)
3. You could put them on bread to make “buttered” or “garlic” bread, which would heal around 3.5 hearts versus the normal 2.5 hearts that regular bread gives you.
4. You could use the olives or buttered/garlic bread to feed/heal wolves.
5. The last use is to power a thing that I came up with that I Iike to call "Defrags", or Defragmentation Machines which would give back all, or a some of what you put into crafting an item. When clicked on, a Defragmentation Machine would have two blocks to fill, much like a furnace. The bottom block would be the fuel, (the oil from the olives) and the top block would be what you want to defrag. I was thinking that defragging an item would be a slow process, and would take a lot of fuel and time, due to the reward you get from using the Defrag Machine. (Like it would need 12-16 olives to run, and might take about 12-16 hours of a Minecraft day to fully defrag;One being for every hour)
All the things I've listed above, I've tried not to make it too hard, or easy for a player to use/get the reward from the items listed above, much like Mojang has done to other items in the game. As I can honestly find no negative effect these ideas could have on the game, I posted this to 1. Maybe have an effect on the game, and 2. To see what other people have to say, or to see if they want to build on my ideas. Idk. Post what you guys think below. Thanks.

not a fan of the defrag machine, doesn't uh.... make sense. It's like it's made out of micro robotic arms that slowly disassemble anything you place in the box.
olives . . . eh . . . a lot of people seem to want oil, but I haven't seen where this gets very fun, just an arbitrary complexity. I think certain types of items should be added as condiments to food, giving a food item a little more value for the space it takes up. olives don't really do it for me.
I'd like to see a new idea for a food item's mechanics, not just a new food, here, it also heals hearts.
We don't need more food, we don't need more trees, and we definetly don't need whatever that third thing is.
Also, wishlist.
Lol is everything a wishlist to you? No but seriously. When i did my post, i did all that the thingy said to do. i had to explain what it was, and say things that could faulter about it. But seriously on alot of your posts they say "wishlist"
I like the idea of olives and olive trees. But that's about it. Garlic bread doesn't add anything really, and the defrag machine doesn't make sense. It's powered by olives? Yeah...
And if you get 8 olives per tree, it should really only heal a half a heart.

I didn't read any of it, but no to all.

Lol jk, but you did make me hungry.
This is a good idea.

It gets annoying -.-
And if you get 8 olives per tree, it should really only heal a half a heart.
