Overview
Bread is a food item in the Food category of Minecraft, obtained through crafting it, trading (Farmer), Village chest loot, and Dungeon chest loot. A single inventory slot holds a full stack of 64 Bread. Eating it restores 5 hunger (2.5 drumsticks) and 6 saturation points.
Restoring 5 hunger and 6 saturation, Bread 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. Of the 18 kinds of generated chest that can hold it, village temple chests are the best bet at about 89% per chest.
