Baked Potato at a glance
Minecraft files Baked Potato under Food: a food item you get from smelting (Furnace, Smoker, Campfire) and chest loot. A single slot takes 64 Baked Potato, a hotbar row 576, and 3456 fill a double chest. It is worth 5 hunger and 6 saturation, which reads as 2.5 drumsticks.
5 hunger back per Baked Potato keeps natural regeneration running, and the 6 saturation behind it is what buys you the time until the next meal, rather longer than the hunger number on its own suggests. It additionally serves as a crafting ingredient for Rabbit Stew. Of the 3 kinds of generated chest that can hold Baked Potato, the ancient city ice box is the best bet at about 55% per chest. It sits between Apple and Beetroot in Food, number 2 of 37 there.

Cooking
Heat is all Baked Potato asks for: Potato goes in any of these 3 and comes back out. A smoker does one in 5 seconds, a campfire needs 30. Experience comes with it: 0.35 a piece, 22.4 for the 64 in a slot. Cooking multiplies what you get: 5 times the hunger of Potato and 10 times the saturation.
Mobs that drop it
Husk, Zombie, and Zombie Villager drop Baked Potato only while burning, so it takes Fire Aspect or a fire underneath to get it straight from the mob.
Eating
4 helpings clear an empty hunger bar, at 1.6 seconds each, which is 6.4 seconds before Baked Potato has done the job. The saturation behind each point is 1.2, so Baked Potato holds the bar steady that much longer after the meal. On saturation Baked Potato lands at 13 of 37, just under Suspicious Stew and just over Bread.
Notes
Cooked in a Furnace, Smoker, or Campfire. Also an ingredient in Rabbit Stew.
