Partially, the 40 hunger was actually something EvilShogun mentioned once. He may have gotten it from the hardcore game.

What concerns me isn't the fact that food is easy to get, it's more the issue that you don't need to do any preparation to make decent food, nor do you need to bring anything except wheat and a large leaves. Pie is ok as far as I'm concerned, as someone had to put in about 5-10 minutes of work for it. If you spent 5-10 minutes spawnkilling any animal that drops meat, you'd be set for life, hence why I don't really think that nerfing all baked goods into the ground will promote chefs. Making it so that you need to do a somewhat sizable amount of preparation for nice food is going to help the real chefs make a living, but just nerfing all baked goods helps nobody except nomadic smiths.
