It is a Realm, hosted by a friend. I don't think I've had the problem in a single-player world. Other than this, I've never had a communication issue except that before the last update, sometimes chunks wouldn't load in the middle of the world (the old "chunk won't load, looks like a giant hole, can walk into it and immediately die of suffocation" bug that turns up every once in a while. Haven't had it since the Realms update.) As far as I can tell, it happens with all food types, not just carrots and berries – and as far as I know, we never encountered the food-cooked-in-furnaces-is-coded wrong thing.
