About
This mod requires Minecraft version 1.21.8 and version 0.133.4 or greater of the Fabric API.
This mod adds a new item, Preserved Flesh, which allows the player to cook rotten flesh. Once cooked, you can eat the preserved flesh without any negative effects.
Preserved flesh gives the player 4 hunger points and 2 saturation points when ate, compared to rotten flesh's 4 hunger points and 0.8 saturation. It is not meant to be an alternative to cooked steak, hence the lackluster hunger and saturation levels.
The key difference between preserved and rotten flesh is that preserved flesh doesn't give the player the hunger status effect, making it a safe way to eat all of your unused rotten flesh.
Obtaining
Preserved flesh can be obtained by cooking rotten flesh in a furnace, smoker, or campfire with any fuel source. 1 rotten flesh, when cooked, will give the player 1 preserved flesh.
