In Minecraft, players can eat all kinds of food items to replenish their hunger and health. Food is an important resource for survival in the game. Hence, players try to find the best food item so that it can quickly and efficiently replenish their health. While some food items can replenish a lot of hunger points at once, they are not considered the best to be eaten regularly.

When a player eats a full cake, they can replenish a total of seven hunger points in Minecraft, which is the most any food item can offer. Each cake has seven slices, each slice restoring one hunger point. Hence, if a player has several cakes, they can easily restore lots of health instantly.

However, this food item is not commonly used by players since it requires lots of food ingredients to make and can take time to eat fully. When compared to cooked porkchop or steak, this food item is less efficient, even if it replenishes more hunger points.


2) Suspicious Stew (with saturation effect)

Suspicious Stew, specifically if it will give saturation status effect, becomes the second food item that will offer the most amount of hunger points to a player. If it gives saturation effect, it can offer up to 6.5 hunger points in one go.

While players can find a suspicious stew as chest loot and have a small chance of getting the saturation effect from it, there is also a method of crafting one. To craft a suspicious stew with saturation effect, players will need to combine one brown and red mushroom with one bowl, and one blue orchid or dandelion flower.


3) Rabbit Stew

Rabbit stew is another complicated and least-used dish in Minecraft that can offer a lot of hunger points in one go. If players want the food item, they will replenish five hunger points, which is half of the hunger bar.

However, rabbit stew needs one cooked rabbit, one baked potato, one carrot, and one bowl to craft, which can be a lot of work to create one food item. Hence, it is hardly crafted by players regularly.


4) Cooked Porkchop

Cooked porkchop might be the most used food item in this entire list. This dish can be prepared by killing pigs and cooking their raw pork in a furnace. Since pigs are common farm animals, they are frequently used for food by players.

Another reason cooked porkchop is used is that it can replenish four hunger points. By eating one or two cooked porkchops, players can easily replenish most of their hunger and be ready for more adventure.


5) Pumpkin Pie

Pumpkin Pie is another food item that can replenish four hunger points in Minecraft, the same as cooked porkchop. However, it isn't used enough by players for two reasons. One of them being that it is complicated to craft, and it offers less saturation, which is another metric in the game's food mechanics.

Nonetheless, if players have all the ingredients, they can create a pumpkin pie and keep it for emergencies, when they are out of their staple food item.
