The player can eat an extra food while walking and not pointing at a block that may cause player to hit it. The extra food goes into an "invisible bank" for hearts.
This goes along with another issue I had posted. https://mojang.atlassian.net/browse/MCPE-978

Yes, it only works with one extra food. And it doesn't visually give you an extra heart. If you were to get hurt you may not lose any hearts, or you may lose less.

I was using PocketInvEditor to check my health... that program also allows you to give yourself over 10 hearts, and shows your actual health level, so it should have showed up there if it actually gave me more life. So the extra health could be an iOS-only thing, or maybe it happens erratically or something... but the eating extra food thing I can definitely confirm. So, maybe these make sense as separate tickets after all.

I tried it on my kindle fire HD and it doesn't work.
This is interesting... I got it to work, partly. I can only eat one extra food item, though, and it doesn't give me extra hearts... the overflow just gets lost I guess.
Don't you think this should be a comment on / update to MC-978 instead of a separate ticket?
