Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

I don't know my version or loader

Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.

No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

Minecraft isn't difficult enough for you? If so you should try this mod which implements some food related mechanics to make your gameplay more challenging.

Recommended using along with mods providing huge food variety, such as Farmers Delight or Pam's Harvest Craft 2.

At this point there are these features:

-Dynamic food values (restored hunger depends on how much you have eaten this specific item)

-Eating speed dependency on food stats

-Well Fed effect affecting regeneration rate

-Regeneration and exhaustion rate dependency on many circumstances (currently not configurable)

-Low food/health penalties

-Apple skin ui support

Future plans:

-Full implementation of Hunger Overhaul (https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/hunger-overhaul) and Spice of Life (https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/the-spice-of-life)

You can use this mod in your modpacks whilst distributing locally or in curseforge/modrinth projects
