Have you ever thought in minecraft that squids are useless? Well not anymore! My idea is that squid would be a new food source. Instead of just dropping black dye they will also drop food!
How do you obtain this item?
Well as I partially said before you would be able to get this item by killing squid. The rates of getting the black ink would be the same. But, when you kill a squid now it'll all the time drop 0-2 "tentacles". The tentacles would be an image of a tentacle and is the raw version of Calamari. When you put the tentacles in the furnace and it cooks it'll turn into.... CALAMARI! (The Calamari would be a sort of brown looking tentacle) (as if it was cooked)
How much hunger do they restore?
The tentacle when eaten will restore 1 hunger bar and has a 30% chance of poison for 10 senconds. When put in the furnace to make Calamari it'll restore 3 hunger bars.
Sorry for no images of these items. I hope I did a good enough description of my idea. Hope you guys enjoy. Leave all your feedback!
Squid's ink sacks now are used for written books, along with black dye for the new dyeable armor. Drops aside, a squid farm can be a good, although low receiving, source of XP.
However, regardless how how "useful" squids are, it's the same reason there isn't lambchops: we don't need every animal to be redundant to each other because they can all drop one useable item and meat. Pigs recently got good with the carrot on a stick, and chickens have two useful drops, eggs and feathers, as well as meat. Sheep only drop wool, but they can be sheared infinitely because they feed on grass. Not everything needs to be a copy of a cow.

Yes i do agree. Its an over statement saying there useless. Yes there are more uses for squids now. Thx for feedback. I just wanted to post my idea
Well I want either lamb chops or some new food that I can get from a mob that only has one drop that isn't food... I'm perfactly fine with the potatoes and stuff, but I'm kinda sick of seeing a sheep and staring at him thinking, "I want dem lambchops...".

Your first sentence didnt make much sense. lol maybe lampchops would be cool.
I am not a builder. I am not a poet. I am an adventurer, and I need the food. Squids are still useless even with the book and quill.
+1, and +1 to lamb chops too!
He did indeed, Right here. Now whether he was being sarcastic or serious, I can't say. If he's serious, then we don't need to make this suggestion because they are already working on it; it's redundant and unproductive. If he's being sarcastic, then it's not going to be added and this suggestion is also invalid.

So let's just drop this whole conversation.
