Poisonous mashed potato can be mined with anything, but a shovel is the quickest. It always drops as an item, although no matter how many stacked layers the block has, it always drops one item.

The block also drops as an item when the block below it is destroyed, or if it's pushed by a piston.

Post-generation[edit | edit source]

Poisonous mashed potatoes are created when an entity wearing poisonous pota-toes takes fall damage. When this happens, pota-toes are used up instantly, negating all damage, and a number of poisonous mashed potato blocks are spread around the spot that the entity fell onto. One of those blocks is always directly below the entity.

When a player fall into the void in the Potato Dimension, the credit will roll. When it end or if player skip it with the Esc button, the player will be returned to the spawn point with a poisonous pota-toes and launched into the sky at great speed before falling down. If the player land on a block that can cause fall damage, the poisonous pota-toes is used and poisonous mashed potato is created as usual. This double as both a method to instantly return to your spawn point and to generate an infinite, low effort food source as well as poisonous pota-toes by landing on blocks that don't cause fall damage such as poisonous mashed potato and water.

Usage[edit | edit source]

Poisonous mashed potato block doesn't have a collision box. It negates all fall damage and prevents the entity from jumping if it's inside of the block, like powder snow. It also gives the Sticky effect for 6 seconds when an entity touches it.

Poisonous mashed potato can be stacked together like snow, and then right clicked to consume one layer at a time. Each layer restore 1 hunger, and it's a easy infinite, low effort food source.
