The bug
Sneaking is supposed to prevent block interactions, so you can use the item in your hand even while looking at an interactive block. However, this does not work for many items, causing them to be unusable, even while sneaking.
How to reproduce
 1. Get some food
 2. Look at a crafting table
 3. Start sneaking
 4. Try to eat
 →  You can't
