No I always eat it for food! Us poor kids need something to eat!

With that logic, i guess they removed pink withers too.

Pink withers were in a snapshot, not a full version. Locked chests were Beta 1.4.

No. It shouldn't. Maybe given a use perhaps, but removed, no.

Yes, but as a joke feature. They weren't meant as a real feature.

I also mentioned sponges, which are all but removed since they don't push back water anymore and never made it into survival.

do you do right click at the wolf with it?

yes, and also all other meat..No. Rotten flesh is needed. why? because hardcore minecrafters use it as food and to survive..

Why remove it? It's a last resort food. It's useful, no support.

The problem with rotten flesh is that it's contradictory. For some reason, Mojang didn't put Villager Meat in the game. Their reasons: it's gross, it's cannibalistic, and it encourages players to kill villagers, which isn't the kind of game this is.

But then there's zombie meat: it's gross, it's cannibalistic, and it encourages players to kill a human-based mob.

It's like no no no, you can't eat a villager only after you've killed them. First they have to be turned into a zombie and partially rotted away, and then it's fine to eat them.

Pick one, Mojang. Either include villager meat, or take out zombie meat. I'd vote for taking out zombie meat, because it really doesn't add much to the game.

Not the wet noodles! Jerome would freak out if hat happened....

Actually, an alternative idea: since rotten flesh is already in the game, maybe keep it in. But make it a rare drop. Instead of it being human flesh, maybe it's the remains of whatever meat that the zombie was carrying. After all, they carry shovels and iron ingots and potatoes. Just make rotten meat one of those things.

Rotten Flesh should be ingame, really useful.

Quite frankly, I think it should be tannable into leather, via a furnace maybe. Leather is so hard to come by in the early game that making a suit of leather armour is completely useless because the effort spent farming cows can be easily spent mining for iron.
Of course, that would require balancing the book recipe a little, but big deal. Make each book require an ink sac, or something.

Rotten flesh does poison you, but it can help you on a long journey when you kill tons of zombies.

Rotten flesh sometimes poisons, but sometimes doesn't. If you find a zombie spawner on your server/SP world, it serves as a quick, cheap alternative for a source of food.

I say keep flesh

Rotten flesh is actually very helpful. It's a last-resort food, and it's very functional as wolf food.
No support for removal.

I think there should be a hunger potion. brewing would be nether wart -> rotten flesh -> Hunger potionx3
get hunger for a while. Could be used in pvp (making is splashable of course) to make your opponent unable to replenish health until the effect wears off and he/she eats and heals making it easy to get the upper hand.

Let me just say, that rotten flesh is not useless. In fact I tend to use it a lot on my survival maps. If I use all of my food or I can't get any I will eat rotten flesh.
