Hunger Overhaul Reborn
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.
Hunger Overhaul Reborn is a survival rebalance mod focused on hunger, food, crops, tools, and animals.
Alpha Notice
This mod is in early alpha and has only been minimally tested. Bugs are guaranteed—please report them if you find any.
This is my first published mod since the old META-INF days!

I may be missing features from the original, I'm open to being told I've missed something
