Unable to eat food in hand

Put the summary of the bug you're having here
Unable to eat in survival mode. This was not an issue when playing in the previous version before the update.

What I expected to happen was...:
When down a health icon, and food in hand, I expected to see the eating animation and the health icons would reappear

What actually happened was...:
The food in the right hand would shake as if to start the animation. and then go back as if nothing was happening. Repeat attempts would get part of the animation (0.1 seconds worth) but would not eat the food

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Put food in right hand
2. Attempt to eat
3. Fail at eating
