## 🎮 How It Affects Your Gameplay
In vanilla Minecraft, eating a full loaf of bread when you only need a small hunger refill often leads to wasted food saturation.
With **Sliced Bread**:
1. **Portion Control:** Eat smaller portions on the go without wasting a full loaf of bread.
2. **Early Game Utility:** Gives early-game swords an additional survival utility outside of combat.
3. **Seamless Crafting:** Works directly in your 2x2 player crafting grid or standard 3x3 crafting tables.

## 🔪 Crafting Recipe
Simply place **1x Bread** + **1x Any Sword** (Wood, Stone, Iron, Gold, Diamond, Netherite, or modded swords) anywhere in the crafting grid.
Enjoy your sliced bread!
