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.

This mod adds Creeper Nuggets, which drop from Creepers. When eaten, they restore a random amount of hunger with no saturation. But if you fill up on them, you will explode.
