Potato

Potatoes are a 1-block crop added in 0.8.0 that can be eaten, planted, and can be used in Breeding Pigs. Since Update 0.9.0, players may find them in Farms within Villages, but the main method of obtaining them is still from killing Zombies.

Obtaining
Occasionally, when a Zombie burns, it may also drop a Potato. When harvesting a Potato crop, it will drop from two to three Potatoes when fully grown. The Player can also harvest potatoes in some Village Farms.

Use
Potatoes can be replanted or eaten. They can also be baked in a Furnace, to make a Baked Potato, Which restores 3 hunger if eaten. They can also be used to breed or lead pigs.
