Overview
Carrot is a food item in the Food category of Minecraft, obtained through harvesting carrot crops, killing zombies (rare drop), chest loot, and trading (Farmer). A single inventory slot holds a full stack of 64 Carrot. Eating it restores 3 hunger (1.5 drumsticks) and 3.6 saturation points.
Restoring 3 hunger and 3.6 saturation, Carrot 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. Carrot additionally serves as a crafting ingredient for Golden Carrot and Rabbit Stew. Of the 2 kinds of generated chest that can hold it, pillager outpost chests are the best bet at about 57% per chest.
