Pumpkins!
Since it's almost thanksgiving, here's some pumpkins, and as usual, with a twist. In itself the pumpkins behave like you expect - digging them yields a block, not slices. You can get seeds from a block, or cook a block into roast pumpkin, which is edible. The catch is that there's only one piece of food from a pumpkin so it's a lot of work. And if you want to expand your pumpkin farm, you'll have to water as otherwise the plants die and will not spawn more than 1 pumpkin if you're unlucky, so it's going to be difficult and labor intensive to grow a large pumpkin farm. So yeah, maybe just grow pumpkins once a year for some holiday cheer, like some countries do, and then back to taters, cuz they easy.

Melon plants grow from melon seeds. Once a plant is mature (there
are 5 stages) it will spawn a melon block adjacent to the plant.
The melon block can be harvested by punching, and yields 3-5
melon slices. The melon slice can be crafted to a melon seed.
