Golden Carrot
minecraft:golden_carrotThe golden carrot is crafted by surrounding a carrot with eight gold nuggets, and it is the best saturation food in the game. Eating it restores 6 hunger and 14.4 saturation, keeping the hunger bar full far longer than most alternatives. It is also the brewing ingredient for the Potion of Night Vision.
FAQ
Why is the golden carrot considered the best food?
It restores 6 hunger and provides 14.4 saturation, the highest saturation of any stackable food. High saturation means you go far longer before needing to eat again, which is ideal for long expeditions.
How do I craft a golden carrot?
Place one carrot in the center of a crafting grid and surround it with eight gold nuggets. Note it uses gold nuggets, not full ingots, making it cheaper than it first appears.
What is the golden carrot used for in brewing?
Adding a golden carrot to an Awkward Potion brews a Potion of Night Vision, which can then be further brewed into a Potion of Invisibility.
Can I eat a golden carrot when my hunger bar is full?
No. Like most foods it is not always-consumable, so you can only eat it when at least one hunger point is missing.
