Just a small idea I had with all the new food items and their use in potion, more of the potion ingredients could be edible. Mostly so brewing feels more connected to the ingredients used, like the carrots and night vision potion now, and so newer and/or non-wiki using players have another way of identify possible potion reagents and their effects.
These are the items I think should be added listed with their effects plus food values.
Golden Carrots: Night vision for 4 seconds, same food and saturation as now
Glistering Melon: Heals 1/2 a heart, fills 1 food bar and 5.2 saturation
Fermented Spider Eyes: Since a corruption effect doesn't really mean anything to the player I figured just plain damage would do given that seems to be its primary use. 1/2 heart of damage, 20% of hunger effect since I can't imagine those are remotely tasty, fills 1.5 food bars and 3.2 saturation
Magma Cream: Fire resistance for 6 seconds, fills 2 food bars and 6 saturation
Sugar: Speed for 4 seconds, fills 1/2 a hunger bar and .2 saturation
Blaze Powder: Strength for 5 seconds, 40% chance of catching fire, fills 1/2 a hunger bar and .8 saturation
The rest would be non-edible, mostly for obvious reasons, nether wart, redstone and glowstone have no effect it can give on the player. Ghast tears could of course have a regeneration effect but I've always thought of them as crystals as so not really edible. I'm not sure about that though, so feel free to comment and what you think ghast tears are like and whether they should be edible or not.
As a side note I'd also like to propose the addition of a new brewing recipe; Potion of Regeneration made by Golden apples. Gold in Minecraft seems to amplify certain properties of items so when brewed those potions give of an certain effect that the plain item would not give. Both golden carrots and melons make potions, so why not the apple, and continuing with the style above the Golden apple should create a potion based of the effect given when eaten. I'd suggest it requires being brewed into a thick potion though, (glowstone base), so different base potion might actually be useful and so cost wise it remains similar to current regen potions.
Any comments, additional suggestions, and criticisms are welcome.
no support, this would mean that we get acces to brewery boosts... without having acces to brewery at all. Brewery is only accesable when having found a nether fortress, and this update (although it's only small) would make that requirement redunant.

You want to be a dragon? Well, then you need to have wings, a passion to hoard, and have a deadly breath.
Oh, and did I forgot to tell you dragons are extremely territorial? ROAWR >:)
Fair enough, I can see people wanting to keep potion effects strictly to brewing stands. I do think the other golden foods should give some effect when consumed like the apple, the rest were more of an secondary addition.
