Nether Warts Disappearing In Chests When Unloading Chunk

Whenever I put Nether Wart into a Chest then unload the chunk, the Nether Wart inside of the chest disappears. I know this does not effect every item because I put a variety of items in the chest (including Nether Wart), unloaded the chunk, and every item was still there except for the Nether Wart.

How to reproduce:
1. Open up a new world
2. Set you render distance to 2 chunks
3. Place down a chest and put Nether Wart in it
4. Unload the chunk
5. go back in and look at the chest
