When the player has an otherwise full inventory, eating food from a full stack (64) whilst standing on top of the same food item causes a visual bug for the counter of the food item. The counter remains incorrect (even when dropping or eating more food) until the player picks up more of the food or moves it around in their inventory.
Recreation steps:
Have a full inventory (items do not matter)
Empty exactly one slot in inventory
Throw exactly 1x of any food item of choice on the ground
Fill the empty inventory slot with a full stack (64) of the same food item
Eat the food item in survival, whilst standing on top of the food on the ground
The stack count will be incorrect until either the item is re-placed in inventory or more of the food type is picked up
