A poisonous potato is a type of potato that can poison the player.

The poisonous potato is a rare drop when harvesting (destroying) potato crops: a fully grown plant has a 2% chance of dropping one in addition to the 1–4 regular potatoes. This feature is a reference to real world potatoes, which are poisonous when they are green.

Usage

Poisonous potatoes cannot be planted on farmland or baked. They also have no use with the composter.

Food

See also: Hunger management

A poisonous potato can be eaten; this restores 2 () and 1.2 saturation points and has a 60% chance of applying 5 seconds of the Poison effect, draining 4 points of health. Interestingly, a poisonous potato actually restores more hunger and gives more saturation than a normal, unpoisoned potato. (A normal potato gives 1 () hunger and 0.6 saturation points).
