I just love eating my food by rubbing it against my scalp.

[destinyunbound]

My goodness, all those eating random things clips from the subreddit each month has finaly made sense they were incahoots with mojang all along.

[Dreeonn]

5 seconds to eat a minecart would make me feel like my internet is down

[JJean]

3:26
Fun fact: in bedrock edition, the eating animation does actually show in 3rd person mode

[allayo-xw]

4:50 the sound of souls suffering for eternity in jahannam

[Waffles]

Can we finally eat the sunset with that music playing now?

[jackdog]

3:50 finally. A banana eating animation. Now all we need is bananas.

[damencole]

Finally, we can remake the THX sound with eating a Piglin head. This is the update we have all been waiting for!

[AiriMagePRISM]

1:51 NOOOO, I loved how they were bisected into little amalgamations!!!

[AwesomeCaden]

5:45 So you can’t eat balls, but you can eat…

[kentuckycryptid]

Name a stick "Cigarette."
Make the max stack size 500.
Make it consumable.
Make the eating time 5 seconds.
Make the animation the bow one.
Make the sound that of fire.
Give yourself 500 cigarettes.
Smoke 500 cigarettes.
Repeat.

Hi Phoenix,
The ability to eat any item or block was actually added during the snapshots for 1.20.5, the Armored Paws Drop. 24w34a just changed it to only require a single empty component, instead of needing to also specify the nutritional and saturational(?) value of the food using the "[minecraft:food]" component.

If you combine "[minecraft:consumable]" with "[minecraft:food]", and then apply a texture pack with some custom model data, and sprinkle in some custom recipes with a data pack, you can essentially add any food to the game in less than 10 minutes.
Add advancements to that data pack and you've basically made a mod.

4:08 On bedrock there’s a third person eating animation, so Mojang could just take the animation from Bedrock to Java.

"I wanna get the bundle the legit way"
20 seconds later
"I'm gonna tp some spiders here"

[gentozik]

You can`t hold more items with bundles, but you can hold more types of items, which solves, in my opinion, THE biggest earlygame trouble, where you hold tons of different items you want to save, but even a single item uses a whole stack.
You can potentially TRIPLE your amount of inventory slots with ONLY ONE bundle, which cost is almost zero rn.

[WitherGod]

Fun fact: you can also edit what the item turns into when you consume it (like how potions turn to bottles and stew turns into bowls)

You can make items act like music discs
And you can make heads play custom note-block sounds

[Jush]

The eating random items at the sunset meme is back!

[WarrenTaylor-vgzr]

2:24 this “change” already existed before the snapshot. There is a food data component that, when present on an item, makes it so you can eat it. What was added in this snapshot, is an improvement to that system. Now you can have dirt that can be eaten into swords, or golden apples that give you every effect in the game, which wasn’t possible before this snapshot

[marinesciencedude]

3:05 Ah yes, back to Alpha/Beta eating mechanics

...

I'll get back to you on the 'restore health' part

[augustdruzgal]

This eating change is going to be awesome for plugins and datapacks, if you set the sound to silent and then make the duration effectively infinite you can do stuff like adding sword blocking to your server in vanilla
