Raw Porkchop at a glance

Raw Porkchop comes from killing pigs and hoglins, and Food is where it sits as a food item. A single slot takes 64 Raw Porkchop, a hotbar row 576, and 3456 fill a double chest. Hunger goes up 3 and saturation 1.8 when you eat Raw Porkchop, so 1.5 drumsticks a time.

3 hunger back per Raw Porkchop keeps natural regeneration running, and the 1.8 saturation behind it is what buys you the time until the next meal, rather longer than the hunger number on its own suggests. It sits between Raw Mutton and Raw Rabbit in Food, number 30 of 37 there.
