In a survival endless world a chest containing cocoa beans crafted from the old recipe (red dye, yellow dye and ink sac), causes the game to crash whenever i interact with it in any way, e.g. trying to brake it, opening it, exploding it with TNT &c.

I created a world in 0.12.1, crafted some cocoa beans using the old recipe, placed them in both single and double chests, and then updated the world to 0.16.0 and was able to retrieve the cocoa beans without any problems. I believe your world was just corrupted for some reason. Therefore, I am closing this issue as "cannot reproduce".
