ItemFood doesn't extend Minecraft's ItemFood
Issue #334
new
See: https://github.com/ForestryMC/ForestryMC/issues/149
The reasoning for not extending Minecraft's ItemFood has probably been made obsolete in 1.7, due to ItemStack-aware versions of ItemFood.getHealAmount/getSaturationModifier being added (func_150905_g/func_150906_h). Therefore, it's possible to create metadata-based foods without implementing your own ItemFood class.
