Raw Cod
Raw Cod is a Minecraft food caught by fishing that you can cook into Cooked Cod, a 5-hunger upgrade over the raw item.
Description
Raw cod stacks to 64, and cooking it in a furnace, campfire, or smoker turns it into Cooked Cod. Cooked Cod restores 5 hunger points and provides more saturation (a hidden value that keeps the hunger bar full longer). Raw cod is renewable (you can catch it endlessly by fishing) and was added to Java Edition in 1.13.
