Overview

Beetroot is a food item in the Food category of Minecraft, obtained through harvesting beetroot crops and chest loot. A single inventory slot holds a full stack of 64 Beetroot. Eating it restores 1 hunger (0.5 drumsticks) and 1.2 saturation points.

Restoring 1 hunger and 1.2 saturation, Beetroot keeps your hunger bar topped up so natural health regeneration can continue; higher saturation means you stay full for longer before needing to eat again. Beetroot additionally serves as a crafting ingredient for Beetroot Soup.
