FoodTweaker

FoodTweaker is a lightweight utility mod for modpack developers that allows complete customization of food items through simple JSON configuration.

The mod changes nothing by default and is intended entirely for pack authors and developers.

Using config-defined food entries, you can modify nearly every important food property for both vanilla and modded items across Forge, NeoForge, and Fabric.

Features

• Modify nutrition (hunger) values
• Modify saturation values
• Increase or decrease eating duration
• Make foods always edible
• Add custom potion effects when consumed
• Apply custom attribute modifiers on eat
• Works with vanilla and modded food items
• Fully JSON-driven configuration
• No scripting required
• Lightweight and modpack-friendly

Examples

Turn rotten flesh into a viable survival food:

• Higher nutrition
