Obtaining

[edit | edit source]

Throwing a potato, poisonous potato, or a baked potato into lava turns it into a hot potato, which is then ejected from lava in a random direction​[more information needed]. The hot potato retains data from the original potato, such as its custom name, or how many times it has been lubricated.

Usage

Damage

[edit | edit source]

Each hot potato stores a heat value. This value starts from 0 and goes up by 1 every tick it is in a player's inventory to a maximum of 200. Once the heat value reaches 20 and the potato is in a player's inventory, the player begins taking damage. Based on the heat value, a player takes between 1HPπŸ‘ πŸ’”
and 5HPπŸ‘ ❀️
πŸ‘ ❀️
πŸ‘ πŸ’”
damage each tick. However, due to damage immunity, the player only actually takes damage every 10 game ticks (0.5 seconds).

Fire Resistance does not prevent the player from taking damage from happening. If there are multiple hot potatoes in a player's inventory, the effect is the same as if there was only one. Hot potatoes do not damage other entities if they hold the item.

Eating a hot potato restores 5 (πŸ‘ πŸ–
πŸ‘ πŸ—
πŸ‘ πŸ—
)
hunger and 6 saturation. When a hot potato is consumed, the player is set on fire for 1000000 game ticks (50000 seconds). This value exceeds the range of the short integer type, so only the last 16 bits modulo 215 (32768) will be saved to the player's [Short] Fire data.

Unlike most foods, hot potatoes can be eaten even if the hunger bar is full.

Burning immunity

Hot potato can't be burned in fire or lava, like netherite items.

Hot potato item jumps in lava.
