Better Bats
Better Bats is a simple mod that makes bats drop meat. Make sure to cook it and don't eat too much at once... Feel free to use this in modpacks and YouTube videos!
SpoilerFor those who are wondering, if you eat more than seven bat meat in twenty minutes (this is all configurable in the serverconfig file) without eating any other foods in between, you'll receive the wither effect infinitely until you eat something else.
